Romelu Lukaku told he should leave Chelsea as striker pushes for Inter Milan transfer

Glen Johnson thinks Romelu Lukaku should leave Chelsea this summer despite spending less than 12 months in his second spell at the west London club. The Blues striker re-signed for the club for a record £97.5million from Inter Milan last summer but somewhat struggled in his first season back in England.

Lukaku scored 15 goals in all competitions, so on the surface, it may not have looked as if the Belgian struggled. However, after a scathing interview with Sky Italia towards the end of last year, the striker struggled to win back the Chelsea supporters after that.

Now, with the summer transfer window almost upon us, football.london understands Lukaku is pushing for a move away from Stamford Bridge this summer. Chelsea, though, will not do the striker any favours in terms of facilitating a transfer away, with the finances having to be appropriate in order to sanction a move.
