Romelu Lukaku and Ruben Loftus-Cheek could fund the transfer of Moises Caicedo this summer. Mauricio Pochettino has been tasked with the difficult job of trimming down a bloated squad, and the Chelsea duo look set to make way.
The 29-year-old striker has been heavily linked with a return to Inter Milan following the conclusion of his season-long loan. Lukaku, who sees his contract expire at Stamford Bridge in 2026, featured 25 times for the Nerazzurri in the Serie A last term, finding the net just 10 times.
The Belgium international suffered a number of injuries at the start of the season but, once he got into his groove, he quickly built a head of steam. While the Italian giants are keen on re-signing Lukaku, they are said to be short on cash.
