Arkadiusz Milik’s agent reveals Napoli had been following his client “since November 2015”.
The Polish striker joined the Partenopei from Ajax this summer, and has already scored four goals in four appearances.
“I went to see Napoli twice,” David Przemysław Pańtak explained to Polish media.
“But I dealt with them in Milan and Bologna. Napoli had been following him since November 2015. He was watched by the scouting team, then the sporting director and the Coach.
“The Napoli Coach [Maurizio] Sarri was impressed that Arek can speak four languages. As well as Polish he also speaks English, German, Dutch and now he’s getting to grips with Italian.
“At 23-years-old he will speak five languages, he came across as a very mature and thoughtful lad.
“He’s made a quantum leap by going to Serie A, there aren’t many top-level opponents in the Eredivisie, but in Italy you can meet a strong team every week like Roma, Milan, Inter, Juventus, Lazio, Fiorentina.”
Milik arrived after the departure of Gonzalo Higuain to Juventus, can he be the Argentine’s replacement?
“There will definitely be a successor, but now he’s only Arek Milik and he wants to show what he can do.
“The real figure of worship is Diego Maradona, and it’d be nice if Arek could write a beautiful story with this club.
“We don’t imagine getting to the level of Maradona of course, but it would be nice if the fans also had a poster of Milik under the one of Maradona.”
