Napoli winger Dries Mertens has said that his side have not given up hope of winning the Serie A title this season.

The Partenopei cut the gap between themselves and leaders Juventus to 10 points with a 2-0 win over Sampdoria on Monday.

"The league? We still have many games to play, we'll see. We do not give up," he told La Gazzetta Dello Sport.
