"Napoli" striker Romelu Lukaku may be removed from the squad for the season after a meeting with head coach Antonio Conte.
İdman.Biz reports with reference to "La Repubblica" that the club plans to sell the player in the summer transfer window.
The striker, who is currently recovering from a thigh injury in Belgium, is expected to return to Italy on April 20 to meet with head coach Antonio Conte, a meeting that will determine his future at "Napoli". The club is considering removing him from the main squad. This removal is part of a broader strategy by "Napoli", who want to part ways with the player this summer, a year before his contract expires.
It was previously reported that the Belgian striker left the national team camp and started training with a personal trainer. This situation greatly angered the "Napoli" management, especially President Aurelio De Laurentiis and Sporting Director Giovanni Manna, and they issued an ultimatum that went unanswered. Lukaku has made seven appearances for "Napoli" in all competitions this season, scoring one goal. The striker missed much of the season due to an injury he sustained in the summer.
