Romelu Lukaku is trying to “force” a move away from Chelsea this summer, according to reports. It comes after a season of struggle for the Belgian striker on his return to Stamford Bridge.
Lukaku made the switch back to the Blues last year from Inter Milan for over £100million, however he only managed to find the net eight times in the Premier League. Manager Thomas Tuchel oftentimes found it tough to get the best out of the 29-year-old, with the side so often missing crucial chances in the final third to tie up matches.
The German coach has backed the striker to find his goal-scoring boots though: “Romelu has scored goals all his life. It’s in his body and I tell him all the time to trust his body, trust his brain and to trust his instincts because he knows how to do it [finishing]. He will never lose the ability to score goals, he just needs to rediscover that spark and hopefully, after these two goals he can continue in this way.”
