Romelu Lukaku is for sale.
European transfer market expert Fabrizio Romano said on Friday (June 5), “Chelsea have no plans to sell Lukaku at this stage. Chelsea are aware of Napoli’s interest under Antonio Conte. An initial approach has already been made.”
Lukaku is one of the Premier League’s most prolific strikers. After making his Premier League debut for Chelsea, he hit the ground running after moving to Everton. Starting in 2013-14, he scored double-digit league goals for Everton in four consecutive seasons.
Having fully developed into a top Premier League striker, Lukaku attracted interest from Manchester United. In 2017-18, he was expected to return to Chelsea, but United’s hijacking of his contract led to his arrival at Old Trafford for a record fee of €84.7 million ($126.4 billion). His first season at United was a breakout one, with 26 goals and nine assists in all competitions, but his stay with the Red Devils was short-lived. He only lasted two seasons at United before heading to Italy’s Serie A. He also played two seasons for Inter Milan.
At Inter Milan, Lukaku was at his best. In two seasons, he scored 47 goals and provided 12 assists in the league, a staggering total that prompted Chelsea to make an offer. Chelsea brought Lukaku back ahead of the 2021-22 season for a staggering transfer fee of €113 million ($168.6 billion).
Lukaku returned to his hometown club after an eight-year absence since the 2013-14 season. However, contrary to expectations, Lukaku struggled. In 26 league games, he was silent with eight goals. It wasn’t just his performances. Lukaku“s comments inflamed Chelsea fans, saying that he wasn”t happy at Chelsea and that he didn”t move to Chelsea because he wanted to.
After a strong backlash from the fans and a bad atmosphere in the squad, Lukaku left on loan to Inter Milan. After just one season, Lukaku returned and Chelsea 카지노사이트 sent him out on loan again. This time, it was to AS Roma.
The season is over, and Lukaku is back at Chelsea. But there was no place for Lukaku, who had already become one of the most hated players in Chelsea’s history. Chelsea decided to sell. They had already set a transfer fee. According to Romano, the Blues have set a price tag of £38 million ($66.6 billion) for Lukaku.
Napoli is the most likely destination. Napoli announced the appointment of Antonio Conte on their official website on Friday. Lukaku and 에볼루션 바카라사이트 Conte have had a good relationship during his time at Inter Milan, where Conte was in charge of the club. That’s why they’ve been linked, and according to some reports, Conte wants to sign Lukaku as well.
Chelsea bought Lukaku in August 2021 for £168.6 billion, but he only scored 13 goals for the Blues in a season, and after bouncing around, they ended up selling him for almost half that amount. Even at 66.6 billion, the club had already lost around 100 billion. On top of that, he gave interviews that angered Chelsea fans. In many ways, it“s clear that he”s not the right player for Chelsea.
