New Napoli signing reveals what surprised him about De Bruyne and Lukaku

“They are two high-level players. They surprised me a bit, because they are very humble,” Beukema said.

“We have joked many times together, and they’ve helped me settle into the group. Lukaku has been here for one year already. I’m so happy to be here with them and face them in training sessions. I can’t wait to continue with them.

Beukema: Why I joined Napoli

“I chose Napoli because you don’t receive a call from the defending champions every day. Obviously, it was a great honour,” said the ex-Bologna centre-back.

“I think they’ve chosen me mostly for my skill sets. I always want to give my all and improve to help the team. I like to adapt to every system I play. I’m already on good terms with all the defenders here in Napoli: Amir, Juan, Alessandro and Luca. If the mister needs me to play in a three or four-man defence, I’ll be ready.”
