Inter Milan Agree Loan Deal For Chelsea Lukaku
Chelsea striker, Romelu Lukaku is inching closer to a return to Italy as Inter Milan have agreed to a deal to sign the striker on a season-long loan from the English Premier League side.
It should be recalled that Chelsea signed Lukaku from Inter Milan for £97.5m in August 2021, but he is not set for a grand return to the Serie A side following his struggles at Chelsea last season.
The loan fee for Lukaku has been set at around 8 million euros (£6.9m).
Lukaku scored 15 goals across all competitions for Chelsea last season, with eight in 26 Premier League appearances.
It is understood 29-year-old Lukaku was willing to take a pay cut to rejoin Inter, who won the Serie A title in 2020-21 with him leading their attack.
The Italian club’s financial situation meant it was impossible for them to match Lukaku’s wages or buy the striker outright.
