Former Napoli chief reveals that the on-fire striker mulled over the possibility of cutting his Azzurri career short as he failed to adjust to Naples.
The Argentinean has been in red hot form for the Partenopei side, scoring a brace in Napoli’s 3-1 win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 in the first-leg of the UEFA Champions League last 16 round.
The striker has been consistently scoring for the San Paolo outfit, and is their most in-form striker, forming a lethal partnership with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Edinson-Cavani-c11955.
Former Director General of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003, Pierpaolo Marino, was talking to Radio Kiss Kiss, and in his interview he mentioned:
“I remember that when Il Pocho arrived at Napoli, everyone criticised him so much that the boy was ready to go elsewhere. The fans and the media were sceptical of him.”
The former Boca http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Junior-c20060 youth player has found his rhythm, and has developed a great understanding with Cavani. This link-up has allowed Napoli to excel not only in domestic competitions, but Europe as well.
After a lengthy lay off from European action, Napoli have become one of favourites to win the competition.
Lavezzi joined the Azzurri in the summer of 2007, but things were not as rosy as they seem now. The former Napoli Director gave his two cents on the issue, and stated that El Pocho was new to the league and
had not fully matured back then.
“I bought Lavezzi when he was still young and the fact that he is now scoring regularly is a logical process of maturity. When I assembled the Azzurri side I said that those kids would one day become great
players.”
The Atalanta representative then explained that everyone is finally witnessing the potential that prompted him to sign the striker from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/San-Lorenzo-c40436.
Speculation has intensified on the future of the Argentinean striker, with reports suggesting that he is wanted at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan and Manchester City. Napoli have placed a 35 million Euros buy-out clause in
the striker’s contract, and it will be interesting to know how things unfold in the summers.
