Sky Sport Italia reports that Romelu Lukaku is expected to undergo Napoli medical tomorrow, Wednesday, August 28.

Lukaku is on the verge of joining Napoli in a €30m deal from Chelsea.

The two clubs have already shaken hands, and the striker’s lawyers are finalising the details regarding image rights.

Sky Sport Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio reports that Napoli directors are confident they can reach a complete agreement today, so Lukaku’s medical tests have already been booked.

According to the report, the ex-Inter and Roma striker will undergo examinations on Wednesday, August 28.

What will happen with Victor Osimhen remains to be seen.

The Nigeria international hasn’t been involved in any match by Antonio Conte, but the striker is unwilling to move to the Saudi Pro League.

His agent reiterated on Monday that Osi wants to continue playing in Europe.

Osimhen has a €130m clause in his Napoli contract, but with only a few days left before the end of the transfer window, RMC Sport claims that the Partenopei will accept to sell their star striker for circa €70m.
