Serie A club Napoli is reportedly weighing disciplinary measures against striker Romelu Lukaku following a period of his unexplained absences from team training. What began as a subtle disagreement between the Partenopei and the Belgian forward has now escalated, potentially leading to significant consequences.
Initial reports from the Italian press questioned Lukaku’s whereabouts after he failed to participate in training sessions with the Partenopei, despite indications of his fitness. This public scrutiny prompted Lukaku to clarify on social media that he had sustained a new injury, which was preventing his return to the field.
However, despite his explanation, Lukaku has continued to be absent from Napoli’s training sessions. The club has since issued a statement confirming his ongoing absence from the squad. As a result, Napoli is now deliberating potential disciplinary action, which could ultimately lead to Lukaku’s exclusion from the team for the remainder of the current season.
Lukaku has contended with fitness issues throughout the season, although he did find the back of the net after recovering from a major injury several weeks ago. This developing situation could potentially signal the end of his tenure in Naples.
