Napoli captain Insigne: Great team performance for victory over Legia Warsaw

Napoli captain Lorenzo Insigne was delighted with victory over Europa League opponents Legia Warsaw.

Insigne scored in the 3-0 win.

He later said: "I am happy with the goal, we needed that, but it was overall a great team performance and we allowed Legia practically nothing, a side that beat Leicester City and Spartak Moscow.

“These are three important points to seek qualification for the next round. We are trying to honour all the competitions that we are in, as we have a big squad and certainly don't deserve to go out in the first round.

“The coach can count on everyone, so it's only right that we try to go as far as possible in Europe."

Asked about his contract, the midfielder added: “I didn't start that. We know the dynamics. As I've always said, I am trying to be as calm and focused as possible, to just concentrate on what happens on the pitch. As for the contract, everyone knows my agent is talking to the club, that they want to leave me out of it so I can stay calm and focus on the football."
