After getting a draw against Barcelona in the Champions League, Napoli are getting ready to shift their focus on climbing the Serie A table, starting from the home match against Torino on Saturday. Coach Gennaro Gattuso introduced the game and revelad the condition of some of the partenopei's key players in the pre-match press conference.

"Whoever will play will give his best in order to try to win a difficult game, against a team that has their strength in their physicality. It will be a battle, today we will prepare for tomorrow's match and we'll see how is the team, some player worked in the gym because they were tired after the Champions League game".

"Milik can help us massively tomorrow - Gattuso continued - but I hope that Mertens will recover and be available fot the match. There are great players in this team, then I make my choices based on my ideas. I've talked with Lozano, he can play on the wing but I want him also to focus on the defence. I'm not doing the optimal thing from a club point of view, but I play the player that fit the system and I have to explain them that. Leaving him out of the matchday squad hurts, but I have to make decisions, then it's up to the players to be ready when called upon. Ghoulam? He is feeling way better, I am happy about it, we'll evaluate for tomorrow. Koulibaly started running again, next week we'll evaluate his condition."
