“It was important to continue the winning streak, so I’m happy. There is a good group dynamic, so it’s easy for the newcomers to settle in too,” Di Lorenzo told Rai Sport.

“I found out this morning that I’d be starting, I am happy for the team. I owe Ancelotti a great deal, as he put his faith in me at Napoli from the start and now it’s my duty to keep giving my all. I have to do well at club level if I am to get recalled by Italy.”
