Napoli is on the verge of securing a major transfer as they continue to advance in negotiations with Chelsea for the signing of Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku.
The Italian club’s director is scheduled to meet with Chelsea representatives in London within the next 24 hours to finalize the details of the deal.
All parties involved are optimistic that an agreement will be reached soon, with Lukaku expected to join Napoli in the coming days.
The 30-year-old forward has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge throughout the summer, and it appears that his next destination will be Serie A, where he previously enjoyed success with Inter Milan.
The deal, if completed, would bolster Napoli’s attacking options as they look to defend their Serie A title.
Lukaku’s proven track record in Italy, where he scored 24 goals in the 2020-2021 season for Inter Milan, makes him a valuable addition to Napoli’s squad.
Chelsea, on the other hand, will be looking to offload Lukaku after he spent the last season on loan at Inter Milan, where he helped the club reach the Champions League final.
The Belgian’s move to Napoli would mark a new chapter in his career, as he aims to re-establish himself as one of Europe’s top strikers.
The finalization of the deal is now in the hands of the clubs’ negotiations, with all parties keen to reach a resolution swiftly.
Napoli fans will be eagerly awaiting the official confirmation of Lukaku’s arrival, as the club prepares for the new Serie A campaign.
