Jose Callejon: Napoli

9 assists ( again!)

8 goals

1.9 key passes per game

Unfortunately I couldn’t find an assist specific video on him. Seriously why aren’t there more assist specific videos out there? But this one will have to do.

Jose Callejon has been an immense influence for Napoli. They are currently sitting at 3rd position in the Serie A and are in the knockout round of the Champions League.

He also has an average of 1.3 long balls per game and 39.6 passes per game. Doesn’t that put Kroos numbers in perspective? Although he is a winger and he’d he’s not likely to pass as much as Kroos.

Napoli are playing some good attractive football at th moment under Maurizio Sarri and they’re going to be hard to beat at home in the second leg of the champions league against Real Madrid.

The front three of Insigne, Callejon and Mertens are deadly. Napoli have scored 60 goals this season in the Serie A which is the highest of the league.
