Gargano insists that he recently shared a conversation with Nunez and told him to join Napoli, for whom the 40-year-old also played.

He told me, ‘Yes, I’m coming to Naples, I’m waiting to close with Napoli’.

“The Napoli squad, with De Bruyne and possibly Nunez, will make a leap in quality.

But I will always be a fan of Napoli, even if in the end Darwin doesn’t arrive.”
