“Maurizio Sarri’s side play great football and will force Real to give our all in order to win this. They’ve got a fine Coach and some excellent players.”

It is also a reunion for former Real Madrid man Jose Callejon.

“I am glad Callejon has grown so much. We need a good result in Madrid, because at the San Paolo the Partenopei will really push hard. It’ll be an historic match and they will be highly-motivated.”
