Olivera, speaking to Betsson.Sport, said of Napoli coach Antonio Conte: "The intensity, every training session is really strong. He puts a lot of intensity, in the moment you suffer but then on the pitch you see the results.
“In Italy the tactical aspect is very important. Here in Naples I have improved a lot with the game with the ball, here there is this mentality."
Asked about a player he'd like to have played in the past, Olivera said: “I say someone who plays in my role, I say Roberto Carlos.
"But you have to move to the other wing, otherwise it would be impossible to play."
