ROME (ITALPRESS) – “There were other options, but after talking to my wife and children, I thought to myself that this was the best. I weighed up all the factors: work and life, career and future. Besides, it’s the team that won the league, an incredible team, and having faced them in the Champions League, I know what it feels like: I know the fans, their passion and their support. So Napoli gave me the best feeling.”
Interviewed by “Corriere dello Sport,” Kevin De Bruyne explains why he chose to continue his career with the Neapolitans after leaving City. The Belgian is still hungry: “What would I like my 25th title to be? Probably the scudetto. Having never played in Italy, the championship would be a great goal. We hope to finish as high as possible on all fronts, but it depends on many situations: opponents, injuries, and other factors. You have to base the end of your season on what happens during the season. I want to win everything, of course, but I know it’s very difficult and I know that you just have to work relentlessly. As individuals and as a team. Push as hard as you can and in the end we’ll see what the result will be.”
Napoli, he assures, is a “strong team, with a lot of quality: last year, after all, the boys won the Scudetto, but obviously this year will be a new challenge, and winning again will be difficult. However, I think we can achieve good things: I came for this, because I believe in this team. It has a good structure and a good coach. And they are excellent foundations.”
