Lavezzi tells Napoli fans: I'll get better

New Napoli signing Ezequiel Lavezzi admits he's still some way from top fitness.

The former San Lorenzo attacking midfielder has been inconsistent in preseason friendlies and admits: "For the camp in Austria, I still had heavy legs, I need to train in order to improve my condition.

"For now, I am still not at peak condition, I'd say it's more like 60 per cent."

The Argentine added: "We are on the right road. We're two weeks away from being in top shape, but this squad is convinced we'll have a good championship."
