Higuain: ‘Sarri convinced me to remain at Napoli’
The 27-year-old hit-man talked to Sky Sport Italia ahead of tomorrow’s San Paolo clash against Napoli Scudetto rivals Roma.
“We should have beat Bologna last week, but it can happen not to win. We can’t commit the same mistake against Roma and we have to recover our best form straight away. Every game is vital to us, it is a really important game and we have to win it.”
Higuain backed fellow-striker Edin Dzeko who is not living up to expectations at Roma.
“Playing in Italy is nothing easy. He has played in Europe for long time and he is a complete striker. We need to be very careful tomorrow, if Roma signed his, it means that he is an important player.”
Ultimately, Higuain gave praise and credit to Maurizio Sarri for his great job at the club, but not only…
“I am feeling better than last year. I am more calm and relaxed, maybe because our results are better than last year. The first time I spoke to Sarri it was shortly after he arrived at the club. He took just a few minutes to convince me to remain at the club. I’ve learned from my mistakes and I want to make history at Napoli. That’s why I am at here.”
