Milan, 14 June (LaPresse) – "I'm a winner. I want to win games. I've always been like that, I hate losing. The team won the league last year, so I'm in the Champions League. I think we can do great things together. The team wants to win, they are ambitious. They are a good team. It was a good project for me and I hope I can help the team achieve its goals." Kevin De Bruyne made his first statements as a new player for the Azzurri club to Napoli's official channels. On the welcome he received, the Belgian midfielder said: ‘I remember the fans were very loud, a little crazy. But that's okay. I think I understand a little bit about how Napoli supports the team. It was something I wanted to be a part of. Maybe it will take a little getting used to at first, but if so many people support the team, there will be a great atmosphere and we should get results.’ Finally, on the influence of Lukaku Mertens in his decision, he said: "I've known Romelu since he was 13. He spoke very highly of the team and the city, so I can't wait to do something together. Romelu and Dries know the city very well, they can explain how it works, what the people are like, what it's like to live here. But I understand a little. Of course, I have to get used to it, I have to learn a little Italian, but I'm excited.‘ ’It's something new for me. I've been in England for 10 years, but I think it will be a great experience for me and my family. I can't wait. Dear fans, I'm here to win. Forza Napoli Sempre!" concluded De Bruyne.
