Napoli reach agreement on extension with Callejon: the details
José Maria Callejon is a fundamental player for Maurizio Sarri as the former Real Madrid ace is the perfect player to balance the azzurri attack. His pace and stamina on the right helped the Italian tactician to find the right balance in his first season at the club.
Callejon wanted to leave Napoli after his first spell at the San Paolo with Atletico Madrid that had made a big offer to welcome his services. Benitez vetoed his departure and Callejon was forced to stay at the club against his will.
The arrival of Maurizio Sarri has changed everything. Even if Callejon did not score as much as he was used to last season, he played a vital role in helping the team to qualify to the Champions League.
