Marek Hamsik says 'the greatest joy is yet to come for Napoli' and looks forward to challenging Gonzalo Higuain.
The iconic midfielder was linked to a variety of teams for a move this summer, but he ended up renewing his contract until 2020.
“My priority was always this team,” Hamsik told Il Corriere della Sera. “I was only waiting for the conclusion of the meetings and now we've found a solution, if rather suddenly.

“There are always several rumours surrounding me when the market window opens, but I'm used to that. I think only of Napoli, because they are among the top 15 clubs in the world.
“We developed together and probably the greatest joy is yet to come. A Scudetto or a success in Europe, who knows.”
Although the Vesuviani reinforced their team substantially over the summer, they also lost star striker Gonzalo Higuain to Juventus.
“The disappointment of the fans is understandable. They're passionate and I think it's right that people should express their feelings. The challenge against him and Juventus is going to be interesting.”
