Italian Serie A giants Napoli star striker Dries Mertens has reiterated his desire to stay at the San Paolo Stadium despite having less than 12 months left on his current contract, APA reports citing Calciomercato.

The 32-year-old expressed those views while talking to the media after helping Belgium in a 4-0 win against San Marino in the UEFA Euro Qualifiers on Friday. “My future? I am in Naples and this is my future,” he said.

Mertens further went on to express his disappointment after a nail-biting defeat in the match against defending champions Juventus by saying: “Juventus made some big signings but even then we scored three goals away from home. However, that defeat is still hard to digest.”
