Romelu Lukaku was reportedly upset by a comment made by Thomas Tuchel over his relationship with Antonio Conte when the pair were watching Tottenham last season.
Lukaku has endured a difficult time since his £97.5million return to Stamford Bridge from Inter Milan last summer. But has now completed a £7m loan switch to San Siro ahead of the new season, agreeing to reduce his wages from £325,000-a-week.
His second stint at Stamford Bridge, however, hasn't gone according to plan, with the striker criticising Tuchel's tactics in a controversial interview to Sky Sports Italia back in December. He said: "I think I'm in a moment where the boss [Tuchel] could play me a little more but I have to respect his decisions, continue to work and wait for my time to come. The boss made a choice, I have to keep working and at some point we will talk with Tuchel and see how it's going."
