I had various different offers but Napoli were always my priority.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why did you choose Napoli?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;It wasn’t an easy transfer because I had to wait for three months, but I was desperate to come back to Serie A TIM and play for a competitive team in the Champions League. There’s a lot of work to do, but I’ll give my all. I’m here to help the coach and my team-mates: I feel in good shape physically and I know I can make a contribution to the team.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Did Carlo Ancelotti call you to convince you to come to Napoli?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;It’s a great feeling when a coach like Ancelotti calls you. I was already keen on coming to Napoli, but when there’s such a successful coach involved you have no doubt that you’re making the right decision. Napoli is a big club with a great coach. I really wanted to work with Carlo so I’m delighted to be here.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What contribution can you make to the team both on and off the pitch?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;I definitely have a lot of experience. I’m not the youngest anymore but I know what I’m capable of and I’m sure that I can show that. I’ve always scored lots of goals and I’d like to do that here too. That said, the priority is to be available and follow the coach’s instructions.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is your second spell in Italy. What are the differences between Juventus and Napoli?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;The first thing you notice here is how friendly the people are. I’m getting a lot of love from everyone – it’s great. Now I want to repay that by scoring lots of goals. They’re both great teams – Napoli have come on a lot recently. I just need to focus on training and giving 100%. I can’t wait to get started because I’m really confident and I believe in the dream we have here at Napoli. The dressing room is like a family and that gives you a boost&lt;/em&gt;.”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How can Napoli compete with Juventus?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;It’s not easy. When I was at Sevilla we beat them 1-0, with me scoring. I’ve beaten them before but it’s one thing to do it in a single game and another thing to do so over the course of a season. As I’ve said, I’m confident and I believe we can have a good season. Juventus are used to winning, but Napoli are their closest rivals. We have a very talented group with young players who will develop. I’m sure that we’ll have a team of top players in the future.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;There are plenty of Spanish players..&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;That’s right. Fabian [Ruiz] and [Jose] Callejon are really helping me to settle in, but this is a beautiful city so I won’t find it hard to adapt. Naples is a very welcoming place.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Would you prefer to win the Scudetto or the Champions League?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;I want to win. If I had the chance to choose, I would go with the Champions League. I’ve lost two finals so it would be amazing to win it.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What were your first impressions of Naples?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;It was definitely love at first site. I was bowled over by the beauty of the place and the passion of the locals. I’m really happy here and I can’t wait to repay the people by showing what I can do on the pitch. I’ll give my heart and soul for this club.&lt;/em&gt;”&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why did you pick the No.9 jersey? It comes with a lot of history…&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p style=&#34;text-align: justify;&#34;&gt;“&lt;em&gt;I’ve worn the No.9 jersey at various different clubs and I’ve always scored lots of goals.
