John Simeon reveals his source of inspiration

Among the biggest surprises of this first part of the championship is definitely Giovanni Simeone. The striker has had almost no difficulty in settling in Naples: “It feels good, down-to-earth. This thing of being up there in both the league and the Champions League only makes one want to continue like this, knowing that this is the right path. We are calm and the idea of always having to improve gives us even more strength.”

“I’ve had other temptations this summer but that emotion that the word Napoli gave me has not been given to me by anyone. There is joy in being here. And all this gives me a daily strength. I am a sensitive person, I sense positive energies, I live by picking up what is positive around me and I can separate it from what is negative.”

Cholito is inspired by Ciro Immobile: “The strongest striker I have seen? Immobile. I see Ciro’s movements and I am enchanted by them: he has an ease in finding spaces to score goals or go for a unique shot.”

Simeone immediately found a special feeling with Raspadori, who also landed in the shadow of Vesuvius in the summer: “Of Jack I love his creativity, his stops, his touches, his elegance. Jack and I are the latest arrivals and we found a group that was already very solid and compact, which showed great will. And this will is always the basic condition to be able to achieve the results we have achieved in these first weeks. Then, you know, it is always the results that give the value to things.”
