Lorenzo Insigne is the new captain of Napoli after Marek Hamsik left for China. He spoke about the upcoming match against Juventus to Sky: "The captain's armband on my arm is a little heavier. Then doing it for Napoli and being from Naples it doesn't happen everyday. I just became captain and I am honored to wear it and represent the people. I hope to do it for many years. The challenge is felt and the gap is wide, but we will try to win because for us it has a special feeling, to give our fans a gift. It's always beautiful to score against Juve."
He also spoke about former captain and club legend, Hamsik: "He made history with Napoli, he passed Maradona even in goals and he is an example to follow. I am honored to have played with Marek, he is a great person, he never said anything out of place or complained. He always gave his best. I say thank you to him for the years we shared together."
