Napoli manager Rafael Benitez has said that it is "too early" to talk about the future of Gonzalo Higuain.
The Argentine has been strongly linked with a move away from the club, but Benitez chose to focus on his performance in their 1-0 victory over Lazio, instead of being drawn on transfer speculation.
"I think Gonzalo is having a great season and played at a very high level," he told Sky Sport Italia.
"He made the difference in the Super Cup and did the same today. He is a forward who opposition defences always have to worry about.
"Gonzalo is proving that he's focused and giving his best. I think it's too early to discuss his future and he should focus only on having a great campaign."
Higuain has scored 10 goals for Napoli in Serie A this season.
