According to transfer news from Football.london, Chelsea are willing to go north of €100m in order to land Romelu Lukaku. The former Blues striker is seen as a viable alternative to Erling Haaland as the Blues look to add to their attack.
The Borussia Dortmund striker has been in sensational form since 2020 and that has attracted the attention of Europe’s elite clubs. However, that has also led to the German club valuing the player at a staggering £150million, which means there is a good chance Chelsea may choose to pass up on the player.
Lukaku has been in sensational form for Inter Milan since joining them in 2019. He is leading their title charge this season with his goals. The Belgian has formed a deadly partnership with fellow striker Lautaro Martinez. The Belgian striker is no stranger to Chelsea given he spent three years at the club.
However, he couldn’t score even once. He spent the second and third years out on loan before leaving for Everton. Lukaku then moved to Manchester United and despite decent numbers, he was let go to Inter, where he has resurrected his career. He has scored at a fantastic pace there, with 60 goals in 86 appearances.
Now it has been said that Chelsea are willing to offer upwards of €100m and that Roman Abramovich is ready to make a concrete approach for the player. Given how Lukaku has performed at every club after leaving Chelsea, that is the reason he is being viewed as the alternative to Haaland.
