Romelu Lukaku could be on the move again this summer, with SSC Napoli reportedly willing to sell the striker as part of a wider rebuild. The Italian side are said to have placed a €20 million valuation on the Belgian forward, signaling their readiness to reshape the attacking department ahead of next season.
Lukaku’s campaign has been heavily disrupted by recurring hamstring and muscle injuries, limiting his impact throughout the season. His lack of availability has resulted in only a handful of appearances and very little playing time, making it difficult for him to contribute consistently. That disappointing return has raised questions about his long-term role within Napoli’s plans.

With just over a year left on his current contract, the club sees this summer as the right moment to consider offers. Napoli’s willingness to part ways reflects both the need for tactical renewal and the uncertainty surrounding Lukaku’s physical condition. Any final transfer fee is expected to depend on medical evaluations and his overall fitness.

Although there were early discussions involving AC Milan and Inter Milan, neither club has made a serious push for his signature. As interest in Italy remains limited, Lukaku’s representatives have started to look at other markets where demand could be stronger.

A return to the Premier League is now emerging as a realistic option. Having previously played for Chelsea FC, Manchester United, Everton FC, and West Bromwich Albion, the 31-year-old remains a familiar figure in English football. If a suitable offer arrives, his next chapter could see him back where he built much of his reputation.
