Big blow for Napoli. Romelu Lukaku suffered a serious left thigh injury against Olympiakos and faces several months on the sidelines, with surgery even being considered.
Antonio Conte’s key signing could miss the entire first half of the season, leaving Napoli in a major dilemma. According to Sky Italia, the club is weighing a drastic move: temporarily removing Lukaku from the official squad list to free up space for a new striker.
Napoli must act fast
Two options are on the table — either drop another player to keep Lukaku registered, or bring in an “under” signing (such as Diouf or Juanlu), who wouldn’t be subject to squad restrictions. Whatever the case, Napoli must act fast, with Serie A kick-off just days away.
