Napoli sets €10m price for Lukaku

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has set a €10 million asking price for Romelu Lukaku. The club is looking to offload the Belgian striker after a fallout at the end of last season. The €10 million tag represents a significant loss on the roughly €30 million Napoli paid to sign Lukaku in the summer of 2024. Injuries and a strained relationship with the club have sharply reduced his market value. Lukaku managed just seven appearances and 64 minutes under Antonio Conte this season, scoring a single goal before a thigh injury ended his campaign. The former Manchester United and Chelsea forward saw his playing time curtailed by the injury. Incoming coach Massimiliano Allegri, who has long admired Lukaku, could influence the striker's future, but any decision is likely to wait until after the World Cup. Lukaku is currently on international duty with Belgium, and €10 million is required to open talks with interested clubs. On June 2, 2026, Lukaku scored his second goal for Belgium in an international friendly against Croatia at Stadion HNK Rijeka. The moment was captured by photographer Jurij Kodrun.
