Finally, Romelu Lukaku drops transfer hints as Chelsea fans look on

The Belgian goal machine is enjoys the national all-time record top scorer with 59 goals has recently revealed that he has held positive talks with Inter’s new boss, Inzaghi with the optimism of retaining their Serie A title next season.

“I am staying at Inter. I’ve already had contact with new manager Inzaghi. Maybe I shouldn’t say that yet… but it was a very positive conversation.

“There’s also the challenge of doing it again (winning the league with Inter). I feel good at Inter.”

The above situation will definitely come as a big blow to Chelsea fans who would have welcomed the prowess of their former striker in front of goals.

Meanwhile, Harry Kane and Erling Haaland could emerge as suitable are alternatives for Chelsea except that they could both be more complicated to get over the line.
