Belgium Star To Receive Hostile Welcome At San Siro In Inter Milan Vs Napoli Clash – More Lukewarm Response To Ex Chelsea & Juventus Coach

Romelu Lukaku will certainly receive a hostile welcome from Inter Milan fans at the San Siro, while it will be a more lukewarm reception for Antonio Conte. This is the prediction in today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews . Napoli travel to the San Siro to face Inter today.

And they do so with a couple of very familiar faces in tow. There are big subplots to the Serie A clash, beyond the fact that Inter and Napoli are second and first in the table, separated by just one point. Striker Lukaku has already been back at the San Siro since his dramatic break with Inter.



The Belgian started for Roma in a Serie A match last season. That match saw Lukaku receive boos, jeers, and literal whistles from the Inter fans. That was not too surprising considering the soap opera surrounding him.

And it won’t be much different this time around. Lukaku’s return is not going to dominate the narrative around this match like last season. But the 31-year-old can certainly expect to receive his share of boos.

San Siro Hostile To Romelu Lukaku – More Lukewarm To Antonio Conte Napoli coach Antonio Conte is coming back to the San Siro for the first time since he stepped down as Inter coach in the summer of 2021. And this will be a bit more complicated than the situation with Lukaku. Most Inter fans still have a great appreciation of Conte’s work.

It was the former Chelsea and Juventus coach who won the Serie A title with Inter for the first time in over a decade. There is a sense that Conte was the coach who built the bedrock for the team’s current run of success. Therefore, there will be affection for the coach.

And this will temper any hostility. But the fact remains that Conte left Inter. And he did so of his own volition.

The circumstances of Conte’s departure may not have left the kind of sting that Lukaku’s shock negotiations with Juventus in 2023 did. But the coach did abandon the Inter project right when it was reaching its peak. And for the fans, this is not something they will simply forget.
