Napoli accepted Ligue 1's nomination for the Top Goals Challenge as they posted two goals scored by their former players, Edinson Cavani and Ezequiel Lavezzi. The South American duo were cult heroes at Napoli and left to join PSG for a hefty sum. Edinson Cavani scored 78 goals for Napoli in 104 appearances before moving to PSG in the French Ligue 1 in 2013. Ezequiel Lavezzi was a veteran Napoli player, appearing in 156 matches for the Naples-based club and scoring 38 goals before making the move to PSG in 2012 and then to China's Hebei Fortune before announcing his retirement at the age of 34. Lavezzi was briefly the highest-paid player in world football after his move to China.
