Lukaku to Napoli: Transfer Deal Finalized with Chelsea
Napoli has reached an agreement with Chelsea to sign Romelu Lukaku for around €45 million. Antonio Conte, who used to manage Chelsea, has always admired Lukaku and is eager to work with him again.
According to football journalist Fabrizio Romano, Chelsea accepted a deal worth €30 million upfront, with additional bonuses that could bring the total to €45 million. This will be a permanent transfer.
Lukaku will sign a three-year contract that lasts until June 2027. He has experience in Serie A, having previously played for Inter Milan and AS Roma.
Napoli, who started the season with a 3-0 loss to Verona, needs a strong forward since their first-choice striker, Victor Osimhen, has expressed his desire to leave the club.
