Società Sportiva Calcio Napoli (pronounced [sotʃeˈta sporˈtiːva ˈkaltʃo ˈnaːpoli]), commonly known as SSC Napoli or simply Napoli, is an Italian professional football club based in Naples, Campania that plays in the Serie A, the top league of Italian football. They are among the most successful clubs in the nation, with four league titles, six Coppa Italia titles, three Supercoppa Italiana trophies, and one UEFA Cup. Napoli are the reigning champions of Italy, having secured their second Serie A title in three seasons in 2024–25.

The club was formed in 1926 as Associazione Calcio Napoli following the merger of US Internazionale Napoli and Naples Foot-Ball Club. Napoli saw relatively little success in their early years, not winning their first major trophy until the 1962 Coppa Italia. The club enjoyed increased success in the 1970s and 1980s, winning the 1976 Coppa Italia and reaching new heights following the arrival of Diego Maradona in 1984. During his time with Napoli, the club won their first two league titles, in 1987 and 1990. His seven seasons in Naples also saw them win the 1987 Coppa Italia, the 1990 Supercoppa Italiana, and the 1989 UEFA Cup—their only European trophy. Following Maradona's departure in 1991 however, Napoli struggled financially, and endured relegations and a bankruptcy prior to being re-founded in 2004 by film producer Aurelio De Laurentiis. Napoli returned to the Serie A three years later, and have been among the top clubs in Italian football since, winning three Coppa Italia (2012, 2014, and 2020), two Supercoppa Italiana (2014 and 2025–26), and two Serie A titles (2023 and 2025).

By attendance, Napoli has the fourth-largest fan base in Italy, and was ranked as the fifth-highest-earning football club in Serie A, with $182 million in revenue during the 2017–18 season. In 2018, Forbes estimated Napoli to be worth $379 million, making them the fifth most-valuable club in Italy. Napoli are also one of the associate members of the European Club Association.

Since 1959, the club has played its home games at the Stadio San Paolo, which was renamed Stadio Diego Armando Maradona following the beloved former player's death in 2020. Napoli traditionally wear sky blue shirts, white shorts, and sky blue socks at home and white shirts, white or sky blue shorts, and white or sky blue socks away; this is derived from the shirts of Naples FBC and the shorts of Internazionale Napoli after the clubs merged to form Napoli's predecessor Internaples in 1922. Napoli have rivalries with Juventus, Roma (Derby del Sole), Internazionale, AC Milan and Salernitana (Derby of Campania). The club's anthem is \"Napoli\", one of the major hits of the Neapolitan singer Nino D'Angelo.
