Napoli are said to be monitoring the performances of in-form Everton striker Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian international has been in fine form for the Toffees since his permanent switch from Chelsea last season.

According to The Express, the Naples outfit have been keeping close tabs on the young marksman with a view to a summer offer for his signature.

The report adds that the club consider the Belgian as an ideal replacement for Gonzalo Higuain, who has been strongly tipped to make a move to England at the end of the campaign.

Lukaku is said to be considering his future at Merseyside with the Toffees still far off from qualifying for Champions League football.

The talented striker has netted 25 goals in all competitions for Everton this term.
