Dries Mertens has looked to shrug off the suggestion he may be unhappy at Napoli following regular rotation out of the team.

The Belgian winger has started only once during the opening six rounds of Serie A and made four appearances from the bench.

“It’s a decision of Benitez and I have to respect it,” the 27-year-old has told sudinfo.be whilst on international duty this week.

“We currently play a lot of games and at the moment I have started, on average, one in two.

“After a slow start, Napoli have started to return to being in contention. It is too bad for the Champions League elimination, it was a very important goal for the season.”
