Romelu Lukaku will receive an important award in Trigoria. He, in fact, was considered to be the best foreign athlete of 2023. The award will be awarded by a delegation from the Foreign Press Association. For Big Rom a very prestigious recognition, despite a good but not extraordinary season.
The Foreign Press Association has decided to reward the Roma and Belgium striker, motivating everything in this way: “For his ability to score goals and physical strength“.
Romelu Lukaku will receive this important recognition on Saturday 25 May in Trigoria, on the eve of the match against Empoli. The Roma striker, then, will not participate in the Empoli away match as he is disqualified. The Sports Judge, in fact, stopped him for one match after the yellow card he received in the last championship match against Genoa.
Lukaku was within a booking of a booking and took off his shirt after scoring the final 1-0 goal with his head, a result which allowed Roma to definitively place themselves in sixth place in the league and still hope for the Champions League due to Atalanta’s results.
Lukaku’s season
Big Rom scored 21 goals in all competitions in his first Giallorossi season, reaching the same milestone as Montella and Batistuta. In the championship he stopped at 13 goals. Lukaku will most likely leave Roma at the end of the season, returning to Chelseathe team that holds the card.
With Atalanta’s fifth place and Roma’s qualification for the Champions League, however, an important window could open up for his stay. Roma could invest the qualification money in the payment of the 43 million euro clause set by the English for the player’s redemption. We will certainly know more in the coming weeks.
