Fabian scored his first European goal during Napoli’s 3-0 victory over Red Bull Salzburg in the Europa League on Thursday, and the midfielder is enjoying the freedom afforded to him by Ancelotti.

“I came here with an thigh muscle,” the summer arrival from Real Betis said after the game.

“After that, Ancelotti gave me confidence and that’s important for me. Now I feel very good, I have to keep going like this and work hard.

“I like playing further afield. I can lose the ball more, but I prefer to take risks. In Salzburg it’ll be a very difficult match.

“They’re a very good team, they play good football and we saw it. We must be careful,  they’re an aggressive team.

“I’m very happy for my first goal in Europe, but victory is more important. We played as a team and that’s what we must always do.”
