Cannavaro: “Kim? He can become one of the best in the world”

The former defender spoke about Napoli 's current form , heading into the break as league leaders. He had high praise for Kim Minjae , a key figure in this team's leadership: "I've been watching him for years, practically since he was playing in China ," he said. "Udinese was among the clubs who called me to inquire."

"I told them that if he got over his memory lapses, he could become one of the best in the world, " Cannavaro continued . " I saw him make those mistakes again just last Saturday, in the match against Udinese. Now I expect him to be acclaimed in Doha, at the World Cup."

Cannavaro: “Italy of the future must focus on the Napoli block”

"The Italy of the future is right to focus on the Napoli block ," the former defender added. " There's Di Lorenzo , who has had an incredible growth spurt, and Raspadori, who knows how to inspire despite his young age. They all have great experience."
