Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku has been pranked during training as the striker celebrated his 29th birthday. It comes the day before the FA Cup final with Liverpool but that did not stop two of his teammates having some fun with the Belgian.
Lukaku has hit a rich vein of form for the Blues after a disappointing first campaign back in west London. Chelsea spent £97.5million on the striker during the summer transfer window but he has scored just eight goals in 25 Premier League appearances.
But three of those goals have come in his past two matches against Leeds and Wolves, sparking a debate over whether or not he should now start for Thomas Tuchel in the biggest match of the campaign so far. It was a question put to the Chelsea manager at his pre-match press conference, after the player's agent sparked more speculation by talking about his client's future.
