Fiorentina boss Montella: Ribery will travel to Napoli

Fiorentina boss Vincenzo Montella admits fans could see an instant Franck Ribery debut.

Montella also commented on Federico Chiesa's best position.

He said, “Certainly he's lagging behind a bit in terms of fitness. I talked to him for a long time and he wants to make himself available and be at a competitive level to help the young players and help out on the field.

“He wants to be here. I'll take him to Naples and I hope he can play. As for Chiesa, he expresses himself best on the wing.

“Intuitions sometimes come by chance. Just look Mertens, who – out of necessity – has become a formidable striker, like Totti did."
