Thierry Henry has revealed the ideal next destination for Romelu Lukaku as multiple sliding doors await in the summer. The Belgian got back to goalscoring on Wednesday night in the Champions League but has had a torrid run of fitness since his summer loan.
Chelsea can take solace in that he is no longer the club's most expensive asset but a £97.5m striker on loan is hardly an ideal situation. Having fallen out with Thomas Tuchel and his Blues teammates shortly after joining in 2021, his long-term future appears to be away from Stamford Bridge.
It is a complex situation though, with Inter needing to agree to the conditions of a loan once more for next season, something that may well be hampered by his lack of game time so far this term. The strike against Porto in the round of 16 match will go a little way to proving his quality is still there.
