Romelu Lukaku set for Chelsea return July 17
Chelsea striker, Romelu Lukaku, is set to return to the Premier League club for the start of pre-season.
The Belgium captain spent the entirety of last season on loan at Inter Milan.
Although Lukaku is very keen on continuing with the Serie A side, both clubs have not been able to agree on a transfer fee.
According to football transfer expert, Fabrizio Romano, Lukaku is now expected back in Chelsea training on Monday, July 17.
Romano wrote: “Romelu Lukaku is now due to return at training with Chelsea on July 17th.

“No decision made yet on the player’s side on how to handle the pre-season situation — it will be discussed in a few days. Inter will return with a new bid very soon.”
Romano also revealed that Manchester City have reached an agreement to sign Harrison Parker from Manchester United.
Parker is a talented 16-year-old centre-back.
“Manchester City are close to reaching an agreement with Manchester United for top talented CB (16) Harrison Parker.
“City has beaten four top clubs to the signing — agreement is close despite Man Utd offering highest youth deal to keep Parker,” Romano tweeted.
