Chelsea hope to sell Romelu Lukaku as quickly as possible - but the Blues still want £34million in exchange for his services.
The Belgian striker isn't part of new boss Mauricio Pochettino's plans at Stamford Bridge, having spent last season on loan at Inter Milan. It was Inter who Chelsea signed him from for what was then a club-record £97.5m fee, but now they're willing to take a significant loss in order to shift him permanently this summer.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, as translated by Sport Witness, Lukaku is in no doubt that the Blues want rid of him, with his situation being described as an 'endless quarrel', yet they won't let him leave on the cheap or on loan again. Chelsea's price is even proving too difficult for Inter at present, despite the Champions League finalists' public desire to re-sign him.
