Milan, August 6 (LaPresse) – "Honestly, there were other options, but after talking with my wife and children, I decided that this was the best one. I weighed up all the factors, work and life, career and future. Among other things, it's the team that won the championship, an incredible team, and having played against 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." This is how Napoli's new signing Kevin De Bruyne spoke to Corriere dello Sport, starting with his decision to join the Azzurri. "I'm not a dreamer and this isn't a dream: I'm a player and this is reality. There are eleven months ahead of us and there's no point dreaming about what might happen in the future: you can win if you work hard. I want to win everything, of course, but I know it's very difficult and I know we just have to keep working without ever stopping. As individuals and as a team. Push as hard as you can and in the end we'll see what the result is," he added. “Napoli is strong, there's a lot of quality: last year, after all, the guys won the Scudetto, but obviously this year will be a new challenge and winning again will be difficult. But I think we can do good things: that's why I came here, because I believe in this team. It has a good structure and a good coach. And those are excellent foundations,” he concluded.
