How Jay-Z could help Todd Boehly and Graham Potter with Romelu Lukaku Chelsea problem

Romelu Lukaku's Chelsea career is at strange crossroads once more. It's tough to even call it a career given most of his time has been on-loan or waiting for chances. Despite being owned by the Blues for five years he has made just 59 appearances and scored 15 goals.

His fairytale return was far from that and the £97m spent on him is a reminder of exactly what Todd Boehly and co need to avoid. It might be the worst transfer ever made by the club. It's not over yet either. Lukaku is still owned by Chelsea and ahead of a busy January and summer 2023, Boehly will have another big decision to make.

The Belgian is, once again, out on-loan. This time back to Inter Milan where Chelsea purchased him from last summer, and things aren't going well. Lukaku has been struggling for fitness and has played just three times, scoring once.
