Napoli skipper Cannavaro looking forward to Juventus Super Cup clash

Napoli skipper Paolo Cannavaro is excited to be facing Juventus in the Super Cup in Beijing.

It is effectively a replay of the Coppa Italia Final.

"Both we and Juve will try to be ready for that appointment, but for us the Super Cup is the first objective and we want to make it a double after the Coppa Italia in May," the captain told Il Mattino newspaper.

"I would like to be for Napoli what Francesco Totti is for Roma or Alessandro Del Piero was for Juventus. Now I feel more affection from the fans, though it's tougher than ever in modern football to be a symbol."
