Even though Antonio Conte himself is reportedly willing to let Osimhen go to another team, perhaps it is because the striker does not suit his strategy that he insists on bringing in Lukaku.
I'm not supporting Osimhen and I still don't know what's interesting about Lukaku, even though sometimes he plays well but sometimes he plays badly, why doesn't Conte keep Osimhen again in the new season to become a player who can be expected to bring new changes for Napoli again next season, we will never know in the Conte era the new season will come, who knows, Napoli will play as well as the previous season where they can get the Serie A trophy with good results. Conte must be able to save several other players so he can rotate players when there are injuries, of course he will not lack players on the front line if Osimhen is still at Napoli.  Cool
Therefore, I also find it strange that Conte is more interested in Lukaku, while if Conte keeps Osimhen then of course that will also be good for the long term because Osimhen age is certainly better than Lukaku. Indeed, Conte has his own views and assessments about Lukaku, but considering that other teams focus on building teams with young squads, but it seems that Conte is more interested in building teams with old squads. I don't care about Lukaku success with Conte in the past, because what is clear, the era or moment has changed and Conte also needs to build a Napoli squad for the long term, and not just hope for short-lived success but after that the team becomes destroyed.

By selling Osimhen, Napoli management wants to earn big amount of money. And that's probably why Conte isn't showing interest in Osimhen right now. Napoli won't have to spend a fortune on Lukaku. Moreover, Lukaku is a very talented player. If Conte uses Lukaku properly, Lukaku will be able to score a lot of goals.

I don't think Conte has a long-term plan for the Napoli squad right now. Skoda would have tried to add young players like Osimhen if they had planned for the long term. Conte wants to keep the performance of the Napoli team stable in the next season. Lukaku's performance with Roma was quite good. Moreover, next season Napoli will probably be aiming to be in the top four of the table. Napoli do not have a strong squad to win the title.
