Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri: No problem with my contract

Napoli coach Maurizio Sarri has pledged his commitment to the club.

Sarri has received the Premio Maestrelli today for his work at the San Paolo, and he spoke to Montecatini Terme after accepting the award.

He declared: “We can't be prisoners to anything, we have a path to follow and we're not a team that wins without playing well because of our characteristics, we're about good play.

“The relationship between the San Paolo and the team is something extraordinary, with me particularly.

“The Neapolitans fanbase has no equal, you go on the pitch and you receive something that is much more than emotional. I feel a great debt, and the only way I know to repay it is to give my best.

“My contract? It's a false problem, the contract is there and we need to understand whether all the conditions are too.

“These fans are great and I always want to give 100 per cent, if I don't feel able to do that then I'll take a step back, otherwise we'll continue.

“I was in Serie B four years ago, I can't feel worried. I'm honoured to be close to a team that has been winning for seven years."
