Romelu Lukaku is lighting up Serie A with one of the most complete campaigns of his career.
The Belgian striker played a key role in Napoli’s 3-0 win over Empoli on April 14, scoring and assisting as his side continues their charge for the title. With 12 goals and 10 assists in the 2024–25 season, Lukaku stands tall as one of only two players in Europe’s top five leagues to hit double digits in both categories with Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah being the other.
Lukaku’s sharp finishing and clever link-up play have turned him into a key player in Antonio Conte’s team. Since his €30 million move from Chelsea on August 29, 2024, he has delivered big moments starting with a stoppage-time equaliser on his debut against Parma just two days later.
Napoli fans have quickly embraced him, and his performances continue to justify their excitement. With each match, Lukaku proves he’s not just a goal machine but also a creative force, making his case as one of Europe’s most complete forwards this season.
