Real Madrid midfielder Fede Valverde has insisted that the team will be aiming for the maximum points against Napoli in todays Champions League clash.

In a chat with TribalFootball, Valverde stated that the team is well focused to defeat Napoli.

Its important to maintain this string of victories, we always want to play and win, especially in the Champions League. I dont want to speak from a family point of view, Im here, theyre obstacles that life puts in front of us and that we have to overcome.

I tried to focus on Real Madrid, last year we ended on a high by winning the Copa del Rey. I have grown as a person, these are unexpected moments but we have to move forward and have faith in the future.
