Pepe Reina thanks Napoli fans

On-loan Napoli goalkeeper Pepe Reina has revealed his plan to "repay" the club's fans for the welcome he has received since signing.

The Spaniard was loaned to the Italians from Liverpool following the Reds' capture of Simon Mignolet, and Reina has been quick to express his happiness in Naples.

"I hope to be able to repay the fans [for their support]," Reina told reporters.

"The welcome I have received from the beginning was wonderful. Naples is a wonderful city. I was impressed when I saw Stadio San Paolo for the first time.

"This team has to grow and only think about going one game at a time. The dressing room knows that we'll have to work hard to win. I have always said that the best coach I have worked with was [Napoli boss] Rafael Benitez."

Reina made 396 appearances for Liverpool.
