Romelu Lukaku 'splits from agent' as Chelsea star pushes for transfer

Romelu Lukaku has reportedly split with his agent in an attempt to push through a transfer away from Chelsea.

The 29-year-old only joined the Blues nine months ago for a club-record £97.5million, leaving Inter Milan after two spectacular seasons which saw them win Serie A. Now, though, Lukaku allegedly wants to go back to San Siro and multiple reports from Italy claim that the Belgium international has cut ties with Federico Pastorello, the man who masterminded his return to Stamford Bridge.

Lukaku is claimed to have turned to lawyer Sebastien Ledure, who is said to already be in negotiations with Inter director Beppe Marotta over a potential return, albeit an unlikely prospect at present. Despite declaring that it was his dream to play for Chelsea again having failed to make the grade as a youngster, the striker has not hidden his desire to represent the Nerazzurri once more.
