AI summary

Napoli's ultras voiced their discontent with president Aurelio De Laurentiis during the 47,000-strong crowd at Wednesday's Champions League opener against Arsenal, with chanting directed at him throughout the first half. The protest stems from disputes over stadium banners and De Laurentiis's failure to greet the squad and new manager Allegri at the summer training camp in Castel di Sangro.

The club will hope for a calmer atmosphere when Bologna visit the Maradona on Sunday for the second Serie A fixture of the season, though the mood remains uncertain. Ticket sales for the match are progressing, with upper-curve sections sold out but availability across other areas.
