The team struggled to find their footing, with Dailon Livramento scoring the opening goal for Verona, followed by two goals from debutant Daniel Mosquera, securing a convincing win for the hosts.

This defeat comes after a tumultuous previous season, where Napoli finished 10th despite winning the title in 2022-23, under the guidance of three different managers.

Conte, formerly of Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur, took the reins from Francesco Calzona in the summer, and will be looking to turn things around in upcoming matches.

“We melted like snow in the sun,” the Italian told Sky Sports Italia.

“What I feel like saying is that we should apologise to the Neapolitan supporters, who follow us with such passion.

“I am the coach and it is right that I take full responsibility.”

Conte said he hopes to make more signings.

“One, two, three, four could arrive, as many as the club want to sign. The problems must be faced head-on, and they are not necessarily easy issues to fix,” he said.
