Chelsea reach ‘final agreement’ for Romelu Lukaku deal as Inter Milan loan fee revealed

Chelsea are set to sign the final bits of paperwork that will see Romelu Lukaku make a loan return to Inter Milan this summer, according to reports. The Belgian has been heavily linked with an exit from the club as Thomas Tuchel prepares for a number of changes.

It comes after a disappointing season for the striker, just one year after making the club-record transfer back to Stamford Bridge. The 29-year-old scored just eight goals and assisted once in 26 Premier League appearances.

However, Tuchel had backed him to return to goalscoring form: “Yeah. I still believe that he will [score goals] because he always did, we need more patience than maybe we all have and wanted with this signing.”
