Newcastle United are eyeing a deal for out-of-favour Chelsea ace currently out on loan

Newcastle United plot a move for out-on-loan Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku

In an unexpected twist of transfer speculation, Newcastle United are considering a surprise move for Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian forward, currently on loan at AS Roma, sees himself thrust into the limelight as Eddie Howe’s Magpies aim to bolster their attacking prowess for the upcoming season.

Lukaku’s tenure at Stamford Bridge stood marred by struggles to secure a consistent spot on the pitch, leading to his loan move to AS Roma. However, his recent form in Italy has not gone unnoticed, with Newcastle United reportedly viewing him as an ideal candidate to spearhead their frontline next season.

The Magpies are eyeing Lukaku as a potential solution to their striking woes. The current injury setbacks faced by Newcastle’s forwards, Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson, have prompted Eddie Howe to explore alternative options for the upcoming campaign.

That is as per Belgian outlet Voetbalkrant via football.london. The situation takes an intriguing turn with reports suggesting that Roma is contemplating a permanent move for Lukaku who has 10 goals and an assist from 16 appearances across all competitions. Calciomercato earlier revealed that Mourinho’s side was exploring alternatives to the £37m fee, and one potential avenue could involve offering former Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham as part of a deal to secure Lukaku permanently.

What’s brewing for Big Rom?

For Chelsea fans, this potential move presents a conundrum. Lukaku, who arrived at Stamford Bridge with high expectations, has struggled to establish himself in the Blues’ starting XI. However, his resurgence at AS Roma has reignited discussions about his future.

As the season progresses, the looming decision regarding Lukaku’s fate will surely determine what the future holds for both, Rom and Chelsea. Until then, it is best if we focus on the season at hand.
