Lukaku’s Future: A Tug-of-War Between Milan and Napoli

The latest transfer news surrounding Romelu Lukaku is generating significant buzz, with Gazzetta Dello Sport reporting that both AC Milan and Napoli are vying for the Belgian striker’s signature. However, Chelsea’s firm stance on his price tag and their refusal to entertain another loan deal complicate matters.

Lukaku’s Complex Chelsea Tenure

Romelu Lukaku’s journey with Chelsea has been nothing short of tumultuous. After a promising start in his return to Stamford Bridge, Lukaku’s form dipped, leading to a loan spell at Roma. His time in Italy reignited his career, reminding the football world of his prowess in front of goal. Now, as the summer transfer window heats up, Milan and Napoli have expressed their interest in bringing Lukaku back to Serie A.

Chelsea’s asking price for Lukaku stands at €30m, a figure that both Milan and Napoli find steep. The London club’s refusal to consider a new loan deal only adds to the complexity. As Gazzetta Dello Sport notes, “Chelsea are currently unwilling to sell Lukaku for less than €30m and that a new loan deal is out of question at Stamford Bridge.”
