Lukaku all set for Napoli return in Supercoppa Italiana after 124 days of injury

Lukaku Poised for Napoli Return in Supercoppa Italiana
After a 124-day absence due to a high-grade thigh tear, Romelu Lukaku is set to make his comeback in the Supercoppa Italiana in Saudi Arabia later this week. The Belgium international has been back in training with Napoli since Monday morning, and according to reports, he will be included in the squad for the upcoming match.

Details

Lukaku’s injury occurred during a pre-season friendly against Olympiacos on August 14, just a week before the start of the Serie A campaign. The injury led to the signing of Rasmus Hojlund from Manchester United, as Napoli manager Antonio Conte was left without his first-choice centre-forward for several months.
However, Conte now has a trio of options to choose from, with Lukaku, Hojlund, and Lorenzo Lucca all available for selection. The Napoli squad, including Lukaku, is set to fly to Riyadh on Tuesday afternoon, ahead of the Supercoppa Italiana.

Return to Action

Lukaku’s return to action will be a significant boost for Napoli, who have struggled without their star striker. He has missed 22 matches across Serie A, the Champions League, and the Coppa Italia, and his inclusion in the squad will give Conte a much-needed option up front.
While it remains to be seen how long Lukaku will be able to play for, his return to training is a positive sign for both the player and the club. Napoli fans will be eagerly awaiting his return to the pitch, and Lukaku will be looking to make a statement in his first game back.
