Excitement is mounting in Naples as Romelu Lukaku reunites with Antonio Conte in a striking transfer move.

The Chelsea forward touched down in Naples on Wednesday, welcomed by over 100 enthusiastic fans as he finalized his transfer to Napoli. Amidst the crowd, Lukaku took a moment to assist a fan who had fallen, further endearing himself to local supporters.

Italian media confirmed Lukaku will sign a three-year deal with Napoli, costing the Serie A club 30 million euros plus 30% of any future transfer fee. Known for his effectiveness under Conte's previous tenure at Inter, the duo aims to replicate past successes. Lukaku, previously training separately from the Chelsea squad, had been on loan to Inter Milan and Roma in successive seasons. His transition to Napoli is seen as a fresh start after a lackluster second spell at Chelsea.

Conte, who took charge at Napoli two months ago to resolve last year's turbulent season, marked his first Serie A win with the club last weekend. The team aims to bounce back from the previous season's 10th-place finish and absence from European competitions.
