Walter Mazzarri says he's excited to be again in charge of Napoli.

Mazzarri will kickoff his second spell as Napoli coach against Atalanta this weekend.

He said, "I'm thrilled, after 23 years of career you still manage to do it... And is it the strongest team I have ever coached? Certainly yes.

"I have to be careful how I speak, I'm famous for complaining but I don't do it anymore. The group, given the masterpiece they created with (Luciano) Spalletti, is beautiful to see, I liked watching Napoli from the outside: beautiful football with great organization.

"A coach with a 23-year career hopes to be able to coach a team like this, I thank the president who called me."
