Real Madrid-Naples. Was it the Champions League draw you dreamed of?
The truth was yes, I dreamed of going back there. I did not expect it to be now, in the Last 16, it's a bit early to play Real Madrid! But the draw is like that sometimes...
"I’m in contact a lot with Ramos and with Morata"
How did the dressing room react?
Well, it's a challenge for everyone. But until Saturday we can’t talk about Madrid, the boss gets angry (laughs)!
Have you talked to any of your ex-teammates?
I’m in contact a lot with Ramos and with Morata. I also congratulated Cristiano for the Ballon d’Or.
What kind of teammate is Cristiano?
He is an absolutely normal, modest person. He’s great worker: first to come in and the last one to leave. When I trained with him, I always tried to learn. It’s not every day you work with the best in the world.
