Liverpool target content to remain with Napoli

Ezequiel Lavezzi's agent claims the striker is happy at Napoli after being linked with a move to Liverpool over the summer. Alejandro Mazzoni maintains that the 24-year-old will not be going anywhere. "Lavezzi doesn't have any problem with staying at Napoli because he is part of the project of the team and not playing in the Europa League will not be a problem.

"Ezequiel is OK. He got very well prepared in Austria and I think he will have a very good season together with his team."

Mazzoni admits Lavezzi is happy to be playing in his preferred centre-forward position under Donadoni.

"When he plays more as a striker he is more important so that's the place in which he should be," said Mazzoni.

"Between Lavezzi and Roberto Donadoni there is a good relationship because he asks him to play more as a striker."
