Galeone, speaking to Radio Kiss Kiss, praised Napoli's defensive prowess against Empoli, saying, "If Conte's team can keep a clean sheet and score, that's a massive advantage."

"I didn't like Napoli's defensive phase against Bologna, but against Empoli, they were solid. Gilmour is a player who knows how to defend and set up play. Alongside Lobotka, Di Lorenzo, Politano, and Anguissa, he's a strong asset in that area."

"If Anguissa needs a break, Conte has a reliable alternative in Gilmour. He doesn't look out of place. If Napoli wants to strengthen for next season, they should consider bolstering each position with a top player."
