What happened. Romelu Lukaku is edging closer to a Napoli exit as he is no longer a priority for Massimiliano Allegri, with the club valuing him at around €10m.

• Lukaku earns close to €8m gross a year on a deal until June 2027.
• He has decided against spreading his current wages over additional years.
• His salary narrows the field of potential suitors considerably.

Napoli face a challenge to find a workable solution due to Lukaku's wages, but signs point to his departure.
