“I signed a four-year contract with Napoli and that has given me a sense of stability. I am playing well at the moment and the stability certainly helped my form too.

“Napoli is the best team I’ve ever played with. The legendary status of the club came from the time Diego Maradona played here.

“The moment I put pen to paper on the contract, my mind went back to the 1980s and the incredible battles between Maradona and Milan’s Dutch players.

“Every time you walk through Naples, you can sense the memory of Maradona. People talk about him all the time.

“I hope to meet him one day, as that would be wonderful.”
