Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku is set to switch clubs after the conclusion of the World Cup.
Details: According to insider Nicolò Schira, despite having a contract with Napoli running until 2027, Big Rom is ready for a new challenge in his career.
Napoli’s management is not planning to keep hold of the player and has set a very reasonable transfer fee for him—just €10 million. It’s worth noting that the Belgian’s annual salary at the Italian club is a hefty €8 million, making his departure financially beneficial for the Azzurri’s wage bill.
Clubs from Saudi Arabia and Turkey have already shown interest in the experienced forward. Given his scoring prowess and high profile, a battle for Lukaku’s signature is expected to ignite immediately after the World Cup.
It should be noted that this season, the Belgian forward has played only seven matches for the Neapolitan club, scoring one goal—which came in a Serie A match against Verona.
