Napoli's elation following their win over Inter quickly turned into worry and gloom as their key playmaker Kevin De Bruyne was dealt a severe blow with a thigh injury. The injury sustained during a penalty strike against Inter has thrown Napoli into further turmoil amidst their Serie A campaign.

With Kevin De Bruyne ruled out for the rest of the year, Napoli's hopes of securing the Serie A title face a significant setback. The absence of the former Manchester City star, known for his creativity and vision in midfield, could prove to be a major obstacle as Antonio Conte's side aims to maintain their position at the top of the table.

Adding to Antonio Conte's woes, Kevin De Bruyne's injury contributes to a growing list of sidelined players at Napoli. The manager now faces the challenge of reshaping his squad and tactical approach in the absence of a key playmaker, further complicating Napoli's pursuit of Serie A glory.
