BasicNet Group and SSC Napoli Extend Deal Between Kappa & Napoli Until 2022
The renewal of the contract – which was due to expire on 30 June 2020 and has seen Kappa produce the Azzurri’s jerseys since 2015 – was a key objective for BasicNet president Marco Boglione and SSC Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis, who will now discuss the terms of a longer-term agreement having ensured the plans already in place for the next two seasons can move forward undisrupted.
