After numerous reports regarding a potential transfer to a Chinese club, Marek Hamsik looks ready to continue on as Napoli’s captain. The midfielder spoke about his change of heart in a recent interview with Sky Sport: ”I stayed here after Ancelotti’s arrival. He called me multiple times when I was in Slovakia where he told me he wanted me to stay on the team. In the end I decided to stay, a decision that made him and I happy. We are working very well here in Dimaro, we are serene and we played a good match. Going to China would have certainly changed my life, I would have liked to start that journey but in the end I’m happy here at Napoli:
Hamsik also spoke about his former manager who has recently started the next chapter of his career at Chelsea: “Sarri? We can’t forget everything we did with him, we thank him since he improved us”
