The Chilean is one of the only players in the Barca squad to have played at the Neapolitan stadium, alongside Semedo and Neto.
El Barça will visit San Paolo tonight for the first time in European competition to meet Naples in the first leg of the Champions League. A match that will also be the premiere at the Neapolitan stadium for most of the players in the Barca squad, including Leo Messi, who will visit the temple of his compatriot Diego Armando Maradona for the first time.
Although there is a Barca player who already knows what it is to play, and even score, in the fief of Naples: Arturo Vidal.
The Chilean has played a total of four matches in San Paolo, all of them wearing the Juventus jersey, with a balance of one win, two draws and one defeat. The only win came in the 2014/15 season, his last in the Turin team before reaching Bayern, with Arturo contributing a goal in the 94th minute, which closed the match for Vecchia Signora (1-3).
In fact, Napoli is one of the teams most faced by the midfielder of Barça, with a total of 10 matches throughout his career, including two finals of the Italian Super Cup (one won and one lost) and a final of Coppa Italia (0-2 defeat). Clashes that coincide with a period of great sporting rivalry between Neapolitans and Turinese that the Chilean lived in first person.
