Romelu Lukaku has already taken centre stage in Napleshaving scored immediately in the opening match on Saturday night against Parma, won thanks to an emotional and thrilling comeback in the final minutes. The powerful number nine of the Belgian national team needed only thirty minutes to conquer Naples, as today’s edition of Il Corriere dello Sport also recalls, which underlines how Lukaku himself has decided to forgo the round of call-ups with his country’s national team, in order to be able to grow in condition more quickly and thus put himself fully at Conte’s disposal for the restart.
It will be possible to see it in action today and tomorrow in Castel Volturnodespite Conte having granted three days of rest to his boys. Big Rom does not want to waste time and will be followed personally by Conte himself and by members of his staff in these days that for others are rest days, but for him will be lived at full intensity.
About Lukaku, and in general about the Napoli market, this is what commentator Marco Bucciantini said in the last few hours: “The pitch has told that if Napoli hadn’t done something on the market we would have seen much of last year’s Napoli again. The club has taken the situation into its own hands, risking being left holding the baby.”
