The 64-year-old has certainly given himself legendary status in Naples, but his future remains unclear after talks over a potential new deal.
Gazzetto dello Sport have reported that negotiations between Spalletti and club president Aurelio De Laurentiis after a dinner last week.
Spalletti's current deal with the Naples expires next year after the club recently triggered a one-year extension, but the coach reportedly remains angered by the possibility that the club could sell some of their top stars.
The report adds that Napoli have already made contact with former Newcastle United and Liverpool Rafael Benitez over a potential return to Naples.
Benitez spent two years with Napoli between 2013 and 2015, where he managed to guide the club to a Coppa Italia title before he went on to join Real Madrid.
