“Napoli lost their minds by letting go of such a player. But despite him, they are going to the championship in the Italian League. It is very interesting. I have been in the football world for so many years. I have never seen such a player.
“He is literally 50% of the team. From the ground, from the air, go forward, come back. He makes counterattacks alone. If that is not enough, he helps the defence. He even makes assists in places where he will hit. In addition to his contribution in terms of play, he also raises his teammates spiritually. He is a 4/4 player."
