Conte added that, “from today I am happier” about his team that has made a faltering start to the season after last year’s slump in the wake of the historic 2023 scudetto.

“I saw that Romelu’s signing is now official,” he continued.

“I hope to have him in training soon to get him in tune with the rest of the team.

“He’ll be with us for the match against Parma,” said the former Juve, Chelsea and Italy manager.

“He’s fast and powerful.

“He knows how to keep in combination with the team’s number 10s, he knows how to attack spaces, that’s why I consider him unique.

“He’s a good guy, I put my hands in the fire for him (an Italian expression meaning to vouch for someone/something).

“He knows he’s coming here and the responsibility he has towards me and towards the Neapolitans.

“From today, I’m calmer and happier about the attack.”
