"I dedicated 33 years of my life to Napoli, which is a large part of my existence, and I have thousands of special memories. But memories must be put away: life always begins tomorrow morning. One big regret is Gianluca Vialli: I had practically signed him, but the press found out and published the news. There were rumours in Genoa and the Sampdoria president at the time withdrew and didn't sell him to me. What does it mean to have had Maradona on the team? Diego represented a huge success for Napoli, the club and all the Neapolitan fans in terms of football. We had got used to seeing him play with us and didn't realise how great he was. Every game he played became legendary. These are truly unique memories."
