It is reported that Chelsea is actually ready to lower Lukaku's price again if Napoli are serious about bringing in the player. It's just that Napoli seems to only be serious about bringing in Lukaku if they have succeeded in releasing Osimhen. Unfortunately, until now there has been no news that an official offer has come to bring in Osimhen. It seems that several clubs who are interested in Osimhen are just rumors and no one is really serious about making an official offer to the player.
Lukaku and Conte have had a long relationship. Because the two of them achieved great success together while still at Inter Milan. Because at that time, when Lukaku was under Conte's tutelage at Inter Milan, they won the Serie A title together. So when the two of them can be reunited, I think it will be quite a positive thing for both of them.
At least, Napoli way of selling Osimhen first to sign Lukaku is a good way but I think, if Osimhen does not leave in this transfer window then maybe it is an impact or risk that must be accepted. Because anyway, with Osimhen still available at Napoli at this moment also because at that time Osimhen chose to stay at Napoli when Napoli won the Scudetto. I said at that time, that choosing to stay at Napoli was the wrong choice, because I also said it would be difficult when later Osimhen wanted to leave because of the declining performance and poor results of Napoli last season.
And it's true, because right now you also say the teams that are interested in bringing Osimhen may only be just a rumors. But I personally feel that Napoli still set a high price on Osimhen and thus,the other teams also still have a lot to consider if the price is too high. But I am sure, if Napoli make a reduction in Osimhen price tag, then it is very likely that it will make Osimhen easy to leave.
Actually, this is a quite unique condition. As I said, Chelsea is actually ready to reduce Lukaku's price if someone makes an official offer for the player. And actually the same thing was done by Napoli. Namely, Napoli are actually also ready to negotiate and reduce Osimhen's price if someone makes an official offer to Osimhen. But what is unique is that up to now, both Lukaku and Osimhen, it seems that there has been no official offer made to either team or player. So even though the club has lowered the price of these players, the official offer has not yet arrived, which shows that every team that is interested still feels that the price of these two players should be lowered further.
For Osimhen, if he fails to leave Napoli this season, it won't be a problem because he will still be an important player there. But for Lukaku I think his fate will be quite sad. Because he might just end up being loaned back to another interested team at the end of the transfer window.
