#1 Break Juve's league dominance

Ancelotti’s return indicates how Neapolitan football has reached new heights, but it highlights how Calcio now possesses one of the most accomplished managers in world football. Just his name will entice more neutral football fans to watch Serie A and his presence around the club could help Napoli break Juve's league dominance.

For the Italian mastermind to join Napoli for three years, De Laurentiis successfully convinced the 58-year-old to commit to the club’s working project. This is clearly a mission to establish a competitive organisation in Italy's south to challenge the northern clubs.

After Sarri’s spell free-flowing attacking football over the last three Serie A seasons that saw Napoli score over 250 goals, sports media from around the globe dubbed it as ‘the most attractive brand of football.’ That being said, as much as it was entertaining seeing the players rack up the goals, it didn’t win them any domestic trophies.

Ancelotti will now look to conquer Massimiliano Allegri’s Juventus, who recently won their seventh consecutive Scudetto. The last team that won the Serie A before the Bianconeri’s supremacy was Milan in 2011, and ironically it was Allegri who won that title with the Rossoneri.

Ancelotti could be the man to break the 28-year-old league duck and bring the Scudetto back to the City of Naples.
