During the week new meeting with Udinese to close. In the chessboard of Conte starts as vice Lukaku, but …
A year of courtship can be enough. Maybe we are here, the last episode is coming. Naples and Udinese have a new meeting scheduled during the week to look for a definitive agreement for the transfer of Lorenzo Lucca to the Italian champions. An explicit request by Antonio Conte, highly warmed by DS Giovanni Manna. And that Aurelio De Laurentiis can now transform into reinforcement for his Naples. For the present and for the future. Lucca has everything you need to be the right alter -ego of Romelu Lukaku in the heart of the attack: centimeters in abundance -201 -, ability to tie the game, the right predisposition to attack the depth behind the defense and also that knowing how to sacrifice in the non -possession phase that is a must for attackers trained by Conte. And the player has already said yes to the Naples solution, obviously flattering by the interest of the blue club. The agreement between the clubs must be found, with the meeting point that could be around 30 million euros. Bonus more or less bonuses.
Not just deputy lukaku

Already last summer Napoli had probed for Udinese’s availability to let his center forward start, without finding great initial opening, but with the promise to be able to discuss it at the right time. Then, with the Osimhen question remained open until the end of the market and even beyond, De Laurentiis had decided to make the investment only for the center forward owner, going to take Lukaku from Chelsea for 30 million. A year later, the blue needs have not changed. Indeed, they doubled since Napoli will return to play the Champions League, also with the Scudetto on the chest. And then you need a vice Lukaku. Not an alternative, but one more owner. Someone who can make the Belgian breathe without the team suffering from his absence, as happened in the last championship in the final minutes of the game without the Belgian on the pitch. Lucca has a physical structure, and a presence in the devastating area. And in the last year it has also grown a lot in terms of experience. Young, Italian and within the national team: the best that is on the market today in the quality/price ratio, also based on the list needs to be respected.

The investment in Lucca allows the De Laurentiis club to also plan in the long term. Lorenzo, in fact, aims to play a permanent place in the new national team of Gattuso and Naples could find that international visibility that cannot find in Udine. In Friuli he grew up a lot, he has shown that he knows how to make department alone and knowing how to hold on to certain pressures. In February he broke with the environment after a penalty kicked against the will of the coach and his companions, with Runjaic who decided to replace him after the transformation. Lucca apologized publicly, he was then “forgiven” but that episode also marked the following months. Today he is a market man, one of the most sought after center forward by the big names of A: Rome and Juve have made us more than one thought, but De Laurentiis seems to have a preferential channel, given the excellent relationships that have long tied it to the Pozzo family.

Napoli, therefore, has a ball in hand, can and want to close the negotiation quickly, also to deliver to Conte a more complete team possible already at the start of the first retreat scheduled in Dimaro Folgarida, in that Val di Sole who became as a second home for the Azzurri. The center forward’s work is fundamental for Conte’s offensive phase, which obviously would be advantaged in being able to count on Lucca from the first day of preparation. Lorenzo could sign a five -year contract that would also see his wages rise, which today in Udine is 250 thousand euros net per season. Napoli thinks up, aims to have 22 owners to be the protagonist in every competition. Lucca is close, now you need the last sprint: another little effort to close and toast.
