Europe's number one runaway striker! Lukaku is about to return to Inter, and the fans sigh: What is the toss?
According to the Italian Republic newspaper, Inter Milan is considering the transfer operation of introducing Chelsea centre-forward Romelu Lukaku, which is expensive and a huge challenge for Inter's existing financial resources, and now the management is communicating specific plans, they have proposed a deal that may join their own defender DeFrey.
Last summer, Inter sold their main centre-forward Lukaku to Chelsea for a whopping £97.5 million, and on the days of returning to play in the Premier League, Lukaku did not find the feeling of a big fight in Serie A, he often lost himself in front of the physically strong Premier League defenders, and in an interview with a British reporter last winter, Lukaku said in an interview with a British reporter that he missed his days at Inter Milan and that he had been considering returning to Inter Milan at the right opportunity. The news shocked Tuchel and his teammates. Lukaku made 44 appearances for Chelsea this season, including 29 starts and 15 goals.
Now Inter have put that goal into practice, but the obstacle for the Nerazzurri now is that they will not be able to pay the huge transfer fees demanded by Chelsea. Chelsea offered a one-year loan term at a cost of £19.5 million, which was bought out a year later for £59.6 million. The price is unacceptable for Inter Milan, who want to achieve surplus income in the transfer market this summer.
Inter want to persuade Chelsea to admit 30-year-old centre-back DeFrey as a way to offset some of the transfer fees, and now for Chelsea's new management, adding defenders is a must, as both Rudiger and Christensen have left the squad on a free transfer basis and the Blues are looking for the right person in the transfer market.
