On this day three years ago, Napoli set a new club scoring record for a single season.
It was back on 28 May 2017 – the final day of the 2016/17 season – when the Azzurri beat Sampdoria 4-2 at Marassi to move onto 94 Serie A TIM goals for the season and 115 in all competitions. Both were new all-time records for the club – and neither has been beaten since.
Napoli’s top four goalscorers in all competitions that season were Dries Mertens with 34 goals, Lorenzo Insigne with 20, Jose Callejon with 17 and Marek Hamsik with 15 – the same four players that found the net against Sampdoria on the final day in 2016/17.
The Azzurri finished the 2016/17 season in third place, on 86 points.
