Lukaku ready for Napoli return in Supercoppa 2025
Napoli arrived in Riyadh this evening for the Supercoppa Italiana, and as expected, Romelu Lukaku was with the squad for the first time this season.
The Belgium international suffered a high-grade tear in his thigh during a pre-season friendly against Olympiacos on August 14.
He has been out of action ever since and made his return to training on Monday morning.

There had been reports that Lukaku would be part of the squad for the Supercoppa Italiana and he was indeed spotted getting off the plane in Riyadh tonight.
Also in attendance was President Aurelio De Laurentiis, while many of the players were seen holding their freshly-prepared cups of espresso.
Napoli will play the semi-final against AC Milan on Thursday, then Bologna take on Inter in the Friday evening clash.
The winners of those two matches can then face each other in the final for the EA Sports FC Supercup on Monday December 22.
