Antonio Conte is reportedly keen on bringing Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku to Napoli if Victor Osimhen leaves the Serie A club this summer.
Conte is expected to take over as Napoli’s new manager and is targeting the Belgian international as a key signing. According to Corriere Della Sera, Napoli is preparing for Osimhen’s potential departure and has started looking for his replacement.
Napoli is confident that either Paris Saint-Germain or Chelsea will meet Osimhen’s €130 million release clause for the 25-year-old striker. Conte, set to replace Francesco Calzona at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, has shown interest in Lukaku.
