Rasmus Hojlund reborn: How Antonio Conte got Man Utd misfit firing again for Napoli

Will need more time to be ready Lukaku (thigh) will likely miss two or three more weeks, as he's not been cleared to play despite being recently called up for the Supercoppa, La Gazzetta dello Sport informed.

Impact Lukaku was with the team in Saudi Arabia but watched both matches from the bench without warming up. He's not far from returning, but the team will be extra cautious. He has been sidelined for four and a half months and will sit out a few more fixtures, also considering that Rasmus Hojlund has been going like gangbusters as of late.

Unavailable against Cremonese Lukaku (thigh) isn't part of the squad for Sunday's bout with Cremonese, Gianluca Di Marzio relayed.

Impact Lukaku didn't suffer a setback but isn't ready to contribute and will stay put to work on his conditioning, which could sideline him for further fixtures, even though he was with the team for the Supercoppa last week. Rasmus Hojlund will keep receiving the lion's share of minutes at the no.9 position over Lorenzo Lucca.

Impact Lukaku made the trip and is in the final stages of his recovery from a significant thigh injury. While he could be selected for the upcoming matches too, it could be a while before he plays relevant minutes. Rasmus Hojlund will continue to lead the frontline.
