"I'm here because I feel a bit Neapolitan, I'm as passionate as my new fans. Napoli deserved for me to wait for them, given my character; I wouldn't have behaved the same way elsewhere. I wanted to experience different feelings that I haven't felt elsewhere. :*Cristiano Lucarelli, quoted in Mimmo Malfitano, «Lucarelli, un premio se segni più di Toni», La Gazzetta dello Sport, 24 August 2010."
