According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Aurelio De Laurentiis, president of Napoli, has repeatedly and publicly criticized football officials and institutions over the years.

De Laurentiis is known for his fiery temperament and frequently engages in heated disputes with strong statements. Recently, he targeted AC Milan president Gerry Cardinale. De Laurentiis said, "I would have thrown him out of the dinner table. What he says seems completely detached from reality to me." This is not the first time De Laurentiis has publicly criticized specific individuals or organizations.

De Laurentiis has long criticized football competition management, particularly for not adequately considering clubs' needs and the number of matches played. Regarding FIFA president Gianni Infantino, he said, "UEFA wants to make more money, so they make tournaments longer. And since 'King' Infantino took office, there's the Club World Cup. Players cannot play 70 games in one season. Otherwise it's suicide. Maybe one season is possible, but how can they continue to do this?"

During a speech in the Senate, De Laurentiis also criticized player agents. He said, "Agent blackmail must be eliminated. They are the real cause of football's debt problem. They constantly inflate player costs. How can we solve this? We need to pass a law extending contract lengths to allow minimum 8-year agreements. This way, after the first two years, agents cannot approach other clubs to inflate players' originally agreed salaries."

After winning their third Serie A title, Napoli had a disastrous season. Following a loss in the Supercoppa Italiana, De Laurentiis held a press conference to discuss the parting of ways with Luciano Spalletti. Their separation agreement was that Spalletti would not take another position, but he later became the national team manager.

De Laurentiis said, "What did I do wrong? I could have confronted him directly and pursued legal action, and I should have. He said he won the league and loved the city, so I didn't think he could change his mind so easily. Otherwise people will feel they can no longer trust the team. I accepted his request because I was grateful that Luciano led the team to victory, and that was my mistake."

The stadium issue has always been a point of contention between De Laurentiis and Naples city government. He has had conflicts with successive administrations, and has even connected this issue to the team supported by current mayor Gaetano Manfredi.

De Laurentiis said, "If Gaetano Manfredi, a Juventus fan and mayor of Naples, could free himself from city council constraints and sell me the stadium, I could make it the most beautiful stadium in Italy within a year. If the city councilors hate Naples and are out of touch with public opinion, we still have the Palace of Caserta or Pompeii. Campania cannot be identified solely with Naples, and the governor is on my side."
