German Denis says there's room in Napoli's attack for Marcelo Zalayeta.

“I think that Zalayeta, Lavezzi and I can play together,” assured Denis. “Of course, that is a decision that must be made by the Coach.

“Marcelo is a champion and very experienced. I’m convinced that if we all give it our best then Napoli can go far. We are aware of our quality.”

Lavezzi has become a fan favourite almost on the level of Diego Armando Maradona, although again Denis says the best is yet to come.

“I know him very well and think he can improve a great deal, reaching the level of the best players in the world. Right now those are Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi.”
