5 appearances in Serie A, 1 in the Champions League and 1 in the Italian Cup, that’s it for Romelu Lukaku’s season with Naples. Handicapped by an injury that he chose to treat in Belgium, which created controversy in Italy, the Belgian striker, aged 33 and under contract until 2027, clearly seemed to be heading towards the exit at the end of the exercise. But despite the departure of Antonio Conte, who brought him in, he is not at all in this perspective as he declared to The Last Hour.

“My love for Naples remains unchanged. I don’t understand where it comes from that I want to leave. In my head, I will still be at Naples next season. People think I’m pushing to leave. No, I had a damn medical problem and I decided to get treatment in Belgium. That’s all »he said. It remains to be seen what Napoli and their future coach, who could be Vincenzo Italiano, will want to do.
