Serie A giants set a whopping €120m price tag for Chelsea’s striker target

Chelsea Transfer News: Inter Milan set €120m price tag for Romelu Lukaku

According to transfer news from Mirror, Inter Milan have set a mammoth €120m price tag on Chelsea target Romelu Lukaku. Inter are preparing for the possible departure of Lukaku, with Chelsea and Manchester City after 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 of his Stamford Bridge career out on loan before leaving permanently for Everton. Lukaku then moved to Manchester United in 2017 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 62 goals in 93 appearances.

Now, it has been reported that Inter Milan are facing the possibility that Lukaku does indeed leave the club. The Italian side are in a financial mess despite their recent Serie A win. Nonetheless, the club plan to get the most out of Lukaku by setting an eye-watering valuation of €120m for the striker.

The Blues have had their problems with forwards in recent seasons, with no striker seemingly being able to nail down a starting berth. Lukaku has honed his skills in the last few years and is a lethal striker for both club and country. Given how Lukaku has performed at every club after leaving Chelsea, no wonder he has been valued at such an exorbitant price.
