Tuesday’s reports claim that the Serie A trophy will be at the Stadio Maradona for Napoli’s final league match of the season against Cagliari on Friday night, but there have not yet been any definitive plans put in place in the event that Inter overtake them and claim the title in the final round. 

There is just one point separating Napoli and Inter at the top of the Serie A table with one game of the 2024-25 season left to play. 

Both teams will play their final matches of the season – Napoli-Cagliari and Como-Inter – on Friday night at 19.45. There is still one specific set of results that will lead to the Serie A title being decided via a play-off, hence why the game will be played on Friday and not later in the weekend, with Inter involved in the Champions League final the weekend following. 

Napoli or Inter: Who gets the Serie A trophy on Friday night? 

According to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport, preparations are in place for a potential Napoli title celebration party on Friday night after their game against Cagliari. 

A victory for Antonio Conte’s side will be enough to secure the title, in the coach’s first season in charge. A draw will leave them relying on Inter dropping points away against Como. 

As is usual for the team at the top of the table heading into the final day of the season, the trophy will be at the Stadio Maradona and there are plans in place for an on-pitch ceremony after full-time if Napoli claim the Scudetto. 

It is also customary for there to be a back-up plan in the event that the team in second or below wins the title on the final day, however, according to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport, there are not currently any plans in place for an Inter title celebration at the Sinigaglia, the home of Como. 

If Inter were to win the title, there are suggestions that there could be a celebration back in the city of Milano on Sunday, however, there are still logistical concerns with rivals AC Milan in action in San Siro on Saturday. 

La Gazzetta dello Sport writes that it remains to be seen what the final plan is in the event that Inter overtake Napoli in the final round of the 2024-25 season.
