Napoli are going to raise questions about the security of the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona after fans rode a moped around the pitch and mocked President Aurelio De Laurentiis.
The incident was only revealed when those responsible published a live video of themselves on social media.
They seemed to be teenagers and broke into the stadium deep into the night with their scooters and mopeds.

A video, which has since been taken down, appeared to show them riding around the pitch on the athletics track that surrounds the turf, doing laps of the stadium.
They even mocked President De Laurentiis, as their voices were heard calling his name and asking if he could “identify the licence plate.”
This will further increase the pressure on the local authorities to revamp the Stadio Maradona, which still has areas that are crumbling.
De Laurentiis has been pushing to get permission to either purchase the site and pay for a complete revamp, or build a new arena elsewhere in the city of Naples.
