Dries Mertens admits he's enjoying his football at Napoli.

The 33-year-old has been in Naples since 2013.

“At times I think that I can play until I'm 40, whereas at others I think I don't have kids yet, I have time to travel the world. It'd be nice to discover something new," Mertens told HLN.

He had been on the verge of leaving Napoli last summer.

“When I retire from playing, I will go to live in Belgium and spend more time with my nephews, but I spoke to Kat and we'd love to keep the apartment in Naples.

“I live like a King here, it's true, but it doesn't take much to lose your throne. For now, I am enjoying this fairy tale that I am experiencing.

“I don't fear that popularity will disappear after football and I am not afraid that people will forget about me."
