Hebei China Fortune striker Ezequiel Lavezzi: Napoli president doesn't want me

Hebei China Fortune striker Ezequiel Lavezzi admits he'd like to return to Italy with Napoli.

Lavezzi signed for Hebei China Fortune from PSG, having made his name with Napoli.

"I miss Naples, I think I left there so many good things," he said.

"I have thought of going back there, but did not really do anything about it because the president (Aurelio de Laurentiis) did not want to. If one day I will return again to Italy and I'm not going to Napoli, it will be because they did not want me.

"I was close to Inter? There have been contacts, but in the end I did not go."
