Thomas Tuchel has urged Romelu Lukaku to follow in Timo Werner’s footsteps and grasp the opportunity if the Belgian is given the chance for Chelsea at Wembley. Werner is in pole position to start in attack against Crystal Palace in Sunday’s FA Cup semi-final after scoring three goals against Southampton and Real Madrid in the past week.
Lukaku is available again after missing those games but the striker has struggled to impress since his return to Stamford Bridge last summer. Although he has managed three goals during their FA Cup run, Lukaku, who was fined by the club for an unsanctioned interview with Sky Italia last year, has not scored in the Premier League since December.
