Romelu Lukaku's Chelsea return date has been changed to July 17 with the forward looking to secure an exit before then.
The Belgian, along with several of his team-mates, was expected back for pre-season training on either Wednesday or Thursday. He is the subject of interest from Inter Milan and wants to secure a permanent return to Italy despite their offer being short of Chelsea's valuation.
The Italian side are set to up their bid as they look to get closer to Lukaku's £40m valuation. The Blues have chosen to delay the Belgian's return date in the hope any deal with the Serie A outfit will have been finalised by then and he won't have to interupt their preparations, as per the Telegraph.
