A petition asking for the conferral of Neapolitan citizenship to Salvatore Carmando, the masseur of Diego Armando Maradona and of Napoli from 1974 to 2009. Promoter of initiative is the criminal lawyer Emilio Coppola, well known in the world of Neapolitan fans. “He remained humble and at the service of the shirt in good and bad times,” explains lawyer Coppola, “he represents an icon and, despite being a proud citizen of Salerno, it is right that the city that adopted him make him feel Neapolitan .
The name of Salvatore Carmando remains inextricably linked to that of Maradona although he was also the masseur of the Nazionale from 1987 to 1992. But the link with the “pibe de oro” was special: in the seven years he spent in the shadow of Vesuvius Diego always started and propitiated every meeting by kissing “his” masseur on the forehead. The estimate that the Argentine champion nurtured for him even pushed him to want him with him in the national team for the World Cup in Mexico (1986) and the United States (1994)
