After two promotions in three years, Napoli were back in Serie A. They spent the first few years in mid-table, and in the 2010–11 season qualified for the UEFA Champions League.^[3] Napoli spent the 2010s competing at the top of the table and in European football. The club won the Serie A under his ownership in the 2022–23 Serie A season.
