“I can’t wait to play this game, as the Champions League would be a huge achievement for the group,” said Plea in his Press conference.
“We are ready to give our all. I know full well that Napoli are an historic club and it’s a privilege to play at the Stadio San Paolo. It’s going to be incredible.”
Balotelli and Wesley Sneijder are out injured, so the 24-year-old will lead the Nice attack tomorrow.
“We must be at 120 per cent tomorrow, because we’re talking about the Champions League here. We must be concentrated on every ball, as we know how quick Napoli are.
“It’s also essential that we make the most of every scoring opportunity we are given over the 90 minutes.”
