The report claims that Napoli is open to discussing a permanent transfer but still haven’t matched Chelsea’s asking price.

Both CorSport and Tuttosport say that the Blues will accept a fee below Lukaku’s €43m clause, although they still expect an offer close to €40m.

On the other hand, according to Tuttosport, Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis has allowed Giovanni Manna to raise the offer from €30m to €32m so the two clubs are not guaranteed to shake hands anytime soon.
