South Korea defender Kim Min-Jae thrilled to join Napoli

South Korea defender Kim Min-Jae is thrilled to be a Napoli player.

The signing from Fenerbahce was presented to the local media today.

Kim declared: "I'm happy to be here, for the interest that Napoli immediately showed.

"If I have to think of foreign defenders, you say Sergio Ramos, he was my point of reference.

"I have already adapted and settled in this new context, I do my best to fit into this new team."

He continued: "There are many Italians I admire, I find it hard to choose one, but if I really have to choose one, I say Cannavaro.

"I don't have big character flaws, as far as strong points are concerned you have seen all the videos (laughs).

"I have to learn a lot, even the style of my teammates, there is a lot to do and I hope to do it as soon as possible."
