Romelu Lukaku is still “hot” in Italy! The striker, who was one of the great architects of Inter’s title last season and left for 115 million euros at Chelsea last summer, has not been forgotten. If he put some of the club’s supporters on his back following his departure, the Red Devil still has a very good rating in Italy.
And after his disappointing season at Chelsea, Lukaku could consider a departure from London during this summer transfer window. With at the top of the list, a return to Inter. We reported to you this Thursday that talks between Inter Milan and Chelsea have been opened for the transfer of Lukaku. Be that as it may, the file is hot in Italy since the striker made the front page of the Gazzetta dello Sport during the last three days. This Friday, the famous Italian newspaper says that Lorenzo Inzaghi, coach of the Nerazzurri, wants at all costs to recruit the Devils striker. “Inzaghi votes for Lukaku”headlined the Gazzetta.
“We can remove Romelu from Inzaghi’s squad but not from his head”continues the daily printed on pink pages, “If we had to make a list of supporters of a return of Lukaku, the coach would be at the top. Inzaghi believes in it and hopes for it, to be able to build a 2nd Inter with Lukaku in a specific role. He considers Lukaku as a dominant player who can bring a lot to Inter.”
On Wednesday, the prestigious Italian sports daily already claimed that discussions were taking place for a transfer while on Thursday, the latter mentioned a possible association with Paulo Dybala next season on the side of Inter.
To be able to carry out the operation, in the form of a loan, Inter will have to pay 23 million euros. La Gazzetta claim the price could be lowered if another player is included in the transfer, be it Dumfries, Bastoni, Skriniar or Lautaro Martinez. But the Italian newspaper is now talking about an “atomic” attack at Inter next season with Lukaku, Dybala and Martinez… The latter has already said, via his agent, that he was happy at Inter and that he saw no reason to change his tune. In this case, a departure from Edin Dzeko is more than likely.
