Lukaku injured, season start doubtful

Napoli team's forward Romelu Lukaku was injured during a friendly match. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

Football Italia reported on this. In the first half, the player struck the ball, fell on the field, and felt pain in the back of his left thigh.

After that, he left the game and watched the match from the bench with a cold compress applied. Initial assumptions suggest that the player may have a thigh muscle strain.

If the doctors' concerns are confirmed, Lukaku may miss the first game of the season. On August 23, Napoli will face Sassuolo in the opening match of the Serie A championship.

This event is of significant importance for the team, and Lukaku's injury may negatively affect his participation in the game. The team and fans are hoping for the player's quick recovery and return to the field.
