Napoli legend Diego Maradona says he's keeping a close eye on Lorenzo Insigne.

Maradona was asked if current star and local lad Insigne should be awarded the Number 10 jersey next season.

“If he scores more goals than me, then he can wear it! I hope this can be the right season for the Scudetto, as they have the right experience now not to drop the points where they did last time. If they hadn't done that, we'd have been champions already.

“I think this is the right moment for Maurizio Sarri, Pepe Reina, Insigne, Dries Mertens and all the others. They can prove that Napoli can win the Scudetto.

“Many generations have passed since my day. Now the Dads have to find videos of my goals to play to their sons. Even the youngest kids know me in Naples and that makes me very proud."
