Napoli swap squad for Champions League: Big Rom in, De Bruyne out | OneFootball

There is news regarding Antonio Conte’s Napoli, as he has decided to make a change to the UEFA list, adding a new striker at the expense of a midfielder.

Napoli, change in the list for Antonio Conte: The coach from Lecce welcomes back Lukaku, former Manchester City player replaced

Antonio Conte’s Napoli is not experiencing a great moment physically. In fact, most of the Azzurri players are in the infirmary, trying to resolve their respective muscle issues suffered at the start of the season. Among them, until recently, was Romelu Lukaku, who injured his thigh back on August 14, and since then, Antonio Conte decided not to include him in the UEFA list for European commitments.

However, it seems that the striker, who won the Scudetto with Napoli, is in the final stages of his full recovery, and Antonio Conte does not want to do without him for the upcoming European matches. For this reason, the coach from Lecce has decided to remove Kevin De Bruyne from the UEFA list, as he will be sidelined at least until mid-February, to free up a spot for Big Rom, who could already be fielded in the match against Benfica, should he be called up.
