While his future in Naples has become considerably complicated in recent months, as has his relationship with the club, Romelu Lukaku finds himself in the sights of Atlanta United. According to Sky Italiathe MLS club has positioned itself on the Belgian striker, looking for an experienced center forward. At 33, “Big Rom” is coming out of a season disrupted by a long injury which caused him to lose his starting place with the Italian champions, who are now more focused on Rasmus Højlund.
The situation therefore becomes uncertain for Lukaku, despite his very good 2026 World Cup with Belgium, who only has one year left on his contract with Naples. His entourage had already warned that the Belgian international would have difficulty accepting a replacement role, which is now pushing the Italian club to consider a separation. It remains to convince Naples, which is demanding at least 10 million euros to avoid financial loss in this matter.
