Romelu Lukaku sends Inter Milan heartfelt message as Chelsea star offered lucrative Saudi switch

Romelu Lukaku has posted a heartfelt message on social media addressing Inter Milan's defeat to Manchester City in the Champions League final. The 29-year-old striker, who didn't exactly cover himself in glory in Istanbul, faces an increasingly uncertain future at Chelsea, with a move to the Nerazzurri or Saudi Arabia said to be on the cards.

In what could be his final game for Inter, he denied Federico Dimarco from netting an equaliser in the dying embers of the game. Devastated by his performance and the result, Lukaku poured his heart out on Instagram and wrote: "First of all thank you to all the Inter fans for the love and support throughout the season.

"You guys stood by us through every moment and personally I want to thank you for that. It wasn’t meant to be. We gave it all. That’s a s*** feeling for all of us that love this beautiful club… But this club has hunger and we will fight to hopefully reach that moment of glory one day."
