Romelu
Lukaku returned to team training with Napoli on Tuesday after months out
injured, as the Italian champions prepare to face Benfica in Lisbon.
The
Belgium striker has not played a single competitive match for Napoli this
season after suffering a thigh injury in a summer friendly.
He told
reporters at the training session "see you soon" as he trotted out
onto the pitch, but he is unlikely to face Benfica in the Champions League on
Wednesday.
In Serie
A, Napoli are level on points with leaders AC Milan, but have had a rougher
ride in the Champions League and are just one point above the elimination zone.
