Catania striker Takayuki Morimoto has set his sights on beating Napoli on Saturday when the two teams clash in Sicily in the 12th matchday of the Italian top flight, with the home side desperate for points.

In fact, it is rumoured that another negative result would seal the fate of coach Gianluza Atzori and for this reason Morimoto is urging his team-mates to give their best to help their mentor keep his place on the squad's bench.

"Lately we're very unlucky," explained the young Sicilian side's attacker to napolipress.com.

"In Florence we proved that we could win.

"On Saturday, even though against a quality opponent like Napoli, we will want to redeem ourselves. Let's hope that the fans support us to win this game and save Atzori. Maybe I will score."

Morimoto has already scored three goals this season and his reputation has been growing, thanks to some convincing performances over the past two years which earned him the interest of various European and Italian clubs.
