The Belgian striker in search of an important record for him and for Napoli: here’s what it’s all about.
In a few minutes Napoli and Empoli will take the field for the last match of the 32nd day of Serie A. Antonio Conte’s Azzurri are looking for a win to continue their pursuit of first-place Inter Milan, while the Azzurri will try to throw their hearts over the hurdle in search of crucial points in the search for salvation.
There will certainly be no shortage of motivation but, if you really want to bet on someone, Romelu Lukaku will have something extra to give his all for tonight.
The Belgian striker is chasing two very interesting statistics, which would confirm the excellent season he has put in.
Lukaku a caccia di gol, o quasi: i numeri del belga
First of all, the goal-scoring situations against Empoli. Against the Tuscans, Romelu Lukaku was involved in goal-scoring action four times (3 goals and one assist) with even a double scored in an Inter Milan shirt in 2023.

And then an even more important seasonal figure. There are 11 goals scored by the Belgian this season, which added to the eight assists build a splendid year for the blue striker. If he were to score a goal or an assist today, it would be the 20th time this season for Lukaku to take part in goal-scoring action between Serie A and the Premier League. The last time had happened in 2021, when Lukaku ended the season with 24 goals and 11 assists in an Inter Milan shirt.
