Chelsea handed major £6.9m transfer boost as Romelu Lukaku arrives in Milan to complete medical

Romelu Lukaku arrived in Milan this morning to complete a loan move from Chelsea back to former side Inter. The 28-year-old has been heavily linked with an exit from Stamford Bridge this summer, and a return to the San Siro always seemed the most likely destination.

The Belgium international has struggled to acclimatise to the Premier League upon his return to west London, finding the net 15 times in 44 appearances last season. Lukaku's misfortune in front of goal has cast doubt over his future, though he is still been able to court the interest of several top-flight European clubs ahead of the transfer window.

The 29-year-old has been linked with moves to Bayern Munich, Inter and Tottenham. The Chelsea striker has reportedly agreed upon a salary with the Italian giants, with a potential loan return to the Serie A this summer on the cards.
