Chelsea F.C. and Napoli Struggle to Agree on Lukaku Transfer

Chelsea’s transfer of rights to striker Romelu Lukaku to Napoli put on hold. Negotiations between the parties to the transaction, which took place in London and involved the leadership of Azurre and the Naples club’s sporting director, Giovanni Manna, were fruitless. In particular, Napoli and Chelsea did not agree on the terms of payment of the transfer amount, although both parties are initially set to close this deal. The conditional “loser” of the negotiations may be Napoli’s Victor Ossime, who also wants to move before the end of the summer transfer window.

Hence the strife that dragged on for several hours did not lead to any results, and the next round of financial negotiations will continue. The contumacy of the chatter is connected with the Napoli attacker, who intends in the current transfer window to join one of the top clubs in any of the championships of the Old World. Lukaku himself is determined to move, among other things, as both parties stalled several weeks after the deal began. The final catalyst in this regard was the disappointing result of Conte’s pairing in the attack, which won 3-0 against Ellen s From Vegas in Naples in the opening match of Serie A.

From this perspective, Lukaku believes that he can strengthen the Antonio Conte lineup and has already worked with him at Inter. At the current meeting of the parties, it was no longer possible to resolve the differences between the clubs, so that the next conversation between Lampard and Napoli is already scheduled. It can thus be assumed that before the Italian transfer window closes, it is more urgent than ever, not only for the parties but also for footballer Lukaku, as the leadership of his club is determined to deal with the transfer of problematic rights, with the cost of keeping expensive players in the lineup.
