Looking back at last summer's international football transfer window, two focus deals of more than 100 million yuan were born, one was the transfer of Aston Villa core Glalish to Premier League giants Manchester City for 118 million euros, and the other was Lukaku, who made a contribution to Inter Milan's Serie A title, returned to his former home team Chelsea for 115 million euros
Lukaku debuted in the youth academy of Belgian giants Anderlecht, and at the age of 18, he landed in England for a transfer fee of 15 million euros and came to London to join Chelsea, but at Chelsea, the "little monster" who was regarded by the club as Drogba's successor was slow to cash in on his talent in the few appearances, so he was also frequently trained, until July 2014, Everton reached a loan buyout Lukaku and paid a transfer fee of 35.4 million euros. Toffee "Lukaku played bravely, in one fell swoop won the attention of several giants, in the summer window of 2017, Manchester United paid a huge transfer fee of 84.7 million euros to bring Lukaku to Old Trafford, in the two years of Manchester United Lukaku can produce an average of 0.57 goals per game, the efficiency is superior, but his wandering journey did not end there
In the summer of 2019, Serie A giants Inter Milan signed Lukaku from Manchester United, the transfer fee was about 74 million euros, and in the Apennines, Lukaku ushered in the real peak of his career, contributing 64 goals and 21 assists in 95 games in two seasons, helping Inter regain the Serie A title while also being elected the best player of the 20/21 Serie A season, and the later story should be known to everyone, Chelsea 115 million welcomed back the "little monster" who was once Stamford Bridge, and the wanderer went home
However, what was originally a warm story has recently ushered in a development that the outside world never expected. On the last day of last year, Italy's "Sky Sports" released an interview with Lukaku, in this interview Lukaku said amazingly, he bluntly said that he was not satisfied with the situation at Chelsea now, but also questioned the tactical play of head coach Tuchel; and when it came to the old club Inter, Lukaku said that he hoped to return to Inter when he was at his peak to fight for more victories; as for the rumors that his former teammate Lautaro was going to join Chelsea, Lukaku said that there was no need for this. Because he will return to Inter
As soon as this report came out, it immediately caused extensive discussion in the outside world, openly expressing dissatisfaction with the current team and showing favors to the former owner, which is not what a professional player should do, and in terms of the current situation, Lukaku's remarks are not flattering. First Inter North Stand die-hard fan group CN69 pulled a banner that read: "Who escaped in the rain is not the most important, what matters is who stays in the storm." Goodbye, Romelu", it is clear that Inter fans do not take Lukaku's affection, and then Inter star Aaltobyl also said in an interview that Inter no longer needs Lukaku
Chelsea's reaction is of course more intense, according to the previous BBC well-known reporter David Osubour revealed that Lukaku's interview was conducted without the club's complete knowledge, which directly caught Chelsea off guard after the announcement, and the team also reacted quickly, in the focus battle between Chelsea and Liverpool in the early morning of Beijing time, Tuchel directly abandoned Lukaku, and the rest of the Blues players also expressed support for the manager's decision, in addition to Carragher, Soness, Several insiders, including Di Canio, have criticized Lukaku's move
However, just after Lukaku was banned by the team, he immediately changed his personal social media profile to "Inter Milan player", obviously Now That Romelu Lukaku has completely torn his face with the team, I wonder if the Chelsea executives will regret that they spent hundreds of millions of euros to buy this "traitor"
