Today in Castel Volturno, as expected, there was Romelu Lukaku: for him only one match with Belgium, the one against Italy. That question relating to that chronically inflamed knee had been raised, brought to light by coach Tedesco, but today Big Rom trained regularly and will be on the pitch with Roma.
Excellent feelings also for Scott McTominay, who was immediately examined by the Scotland doctor. He felt some discomfort, a bit of trouble, but it remains within the range of natural pain for a match. The midfielder himself then contacted the Napoli doctor, leaving several reassurances. At Castel Volturno they are now waiting for him today. His conditions will be verified even further, but in the meantime the first information is enough to reassure Conte and his staff. In short, McTominay should be in the match against Roma.
The sporting director of Napoli Giovanni Mannafrom the Social Football Summit 2024, also spoke about the choice to focus on the Belgian: “Romelu is a player who is convenient for everyone in Italy, it’s a certainty and he has worked with the coach in a very profitable way. He is a player who moves in the championship Italian, every week there is a controversy. He scored 4 goals and 4 assists, he is always doing well and in the eyes of the Napoli fans there is a player like Osimhen who has won the championship since dominator. However, a player like Lukaku cannot be discussed, it should also be underlined that he also strongly wanted to come to Naples.
