Napoli, Anguissa beats Calhanoglu and Leao: he is the best player of October

A well-deserved award for one of the symbols of the Azzurri's revival under the guidance of Antonio Conte, capable of imposing himself with substantial performances, tactical intelligence, and intensity.

Anguissa, the engine and soul of Conte's Napoli

After a challenging start to the season, the Cameroonian midfielder has found his ideal form. October was the turning point: recoveries, insertions, duels won, and silent leadership, all elements that convinced the Lega Serie A observers to award him the “Player of the Month” prize.

His growth coincided with Napoli's regained defensive balance, which saw them finish more matches without conceding goals, thanks also to Anguissa's coverage work and his ability to break up the opponent's play and effectively launch counterattacks.

“Anguissa perfectly represents the spirit of the team. He is showing how decisive he can be, both in defense and in building the play.”

A rising season: from summer doubts to consecration

After the difficulties of last season and a summer marked by injuries and uncertainties, Anguissa has returned to the levels that enamored the Maradona crowd. With him on the field, Napoli has regained compactness and aggression, qualities that distinguished the Italian champion team in 2023.

The Cameroonian is now an indispensable reference point, not only for Conte but also for the locker room. His consistency and tactical maturity make him one of the most complete midfielders in the Italian championship.
