Football club Napoli assured that in every way supports the introduction of the system of video assistants of arbitrators (VAR).

Last week, President Napoli Aurelio De Laurentiis said: "They introduced the VAR - what other obstacles will be introduced to stop us?".

Napoli hastened to assure that there was a misunderstanding.

"Some publications misunderstood the words of De Laurentis about the VAR. Napoli strongly supports this technology. De Laurentiis spoke about instant repetitions, which have been used for the last 10 years, "says the club's statement.

"We believe that the introduction of the VAR will be a significant help for the arbitrators.

Napoli very often uses offside traps. We are the team that owns the ball in someone else's penalty more often than anyone else in Italy. Such a game is subject to error of arbitrators. With VAR, we will be protected more. Mistakes are peculiar to people, although Italian referees have always been among the best in the world. With the WAP, our standards will become even higher ".

After 10 rounds of Serie A, the Neapolitans scored 28 points and lead the standings.
