Serie A: Napoli right to swap Osimhen for Lukaku – Denis

Former Napoli striker, German Denis, believed Romelu Lukaku is a better fit for the club this season than Victor Osimhen.

Lukaku arrived at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium this summer on a permanent transfer from Chelsea.

Osimhen then moved to Turkish Super Lig champions Galatasaray on a season-long loan deal.

Lukaku has already settled down well in his new environment, contributing immensely to the club’s surge to the top of the log.

“We saw a Lukaku in form, even if Conte knows perfectly well what he lacks. He is a Lukaku who is very generous; he plays for the team. Yesterday, he made two assists as an attacking midfielder,” Denis told Radio Kiss Kiss.

“Lukaku in place of Osimhen? I don’t know if Osimhen would have been as suitable for Napoli as Lukaku is with Conte. Napoli made the right choice.”
