This Sunday evening, Romelu Lukaku had a meeting with an audience he knows well, that of San Siro. A return to a stadium where he shone with Inter, participating in winning a title.
But the Belgian then decided to join Roma and his reception in Milan had not been the best one could imagine. And with Naples, the Red Devil once again received a rather special welcome. With each touch of the ball, the nerazzurro public made itself heard.
“San Siro has not forgotten”
“San Siro has not forgotten: when the ball gravitates around it, the decibels reach the limit of tolerable. On evenings like this, we are either excited or depressed: Big Romin his career, has almost always passed away, and today is no exception to the rule”, writes Tuttomercatoweb about the Belgian’s performance.
Invisible against his former colors, he was replaced in the 77th minute of play without ever being able to weigh on the opposing defense. The return of Acerbi to this defense obviously did not help Lukaku to put in a good performance.
Find colors with the Devils
It is now with the national team that he will try to find his way back to goal. The duel against Italy could in particular allow him to stand out, he who has not played with the Red Devils since the Euro. It remains to be seen if he will find the spark he spoke of, the one which no longer animates him and which almost made him stop after the World Cup in Qatar.
