According to The Guardian, Gli Azzurri are willing to let the reigning CAF Men's Player of the Year go to Chelsea in exchange for Romelu Lukaku.

The Serie A giants are now actively trying to offload the 25-year-old marksman, who is believed to be training away from the rest of the first team at this stage.

Attached to his current contract, however, is a mooted €130 million (R2.5 billion) release clause that most sides, including Chelsea, seem reluctant to pay.

It is understood Napoli want to get rid of the Lagos native in a bid to finance a deal that could see Belgium international Lukaku's arrival at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium.

The Red Devils' all-time top goalscorer re-signed for the west Londoners in 2021 for a club-record fee of €113 million (R2.2 billion) from Inter Milan, but has not had the desired effect at Stamford Bridge since.

He has been loaned out to Serie A teams twice since rejoining the English outfit, spending the 2022/23 campaign with Inter Milan and last season with AS Roma, and he now looks set on a permanent move to the Italian top flight, with Napoli boss Antonio Conte believed to be keen on reuniting with Lukaku, whom he worked at the Nerazzurri.
