He is exactly what Chelsea need – a No 9. Chelsea coach, Thomas Tuchel said to the Chelsea board that the team needs a No 9. The manager listed Lukaku, Haaland or Kane as preferred options to the kind of player the team needs to add and Lukaku gave more consideration. They’ve had to pay a premium to get him and he is 28. The club still believe he will still have some resale value if he was to leave Chelsea later.
The deal is very close and almost done. Lukaku is having his medical in Milan today, the first part of that is already over, he will be coming to London as soon as the medical is done and it be today, tomorrow or the day after, but in reality, he is a Chelsea player.
Coming back after ten years he signed for Chelsea, it is a fantastic move for him. Last time round, it didn’t work out. He was a prospect of new Didier Drogba, he struggled and later sold to Everton. But he’s coming back a much better player, more complete player.
If Lukaku can reproduces the form he has shown in Italy in the last two seasons, then we can say Chelsea have got the answer to their problems because Lukaku will score 20 or 30 goals every season which is a good return for the player and the team
You have to take your hats off to his advisors, his agents because everything has bene done properly. It has been done privately and behind the scenes, there has been no strikes and Lukaku has been very professional, he’s always said the right things and it’s going to be a good deal for Inter Milan. This is the textbook example of how to make a transfer happen.
