Romelu Lukaku wants to leave Chelsea less than a year after his arrival. What was his childhood dream, it seems, has turned into a nightmare. In December, his declarations of love for Inter on ‘Sky Sport’ already made it clear that he wasn’t happy with the Blues, and the situation hasn’t changed at all. What’s more: he has gotten worse. This morning, The Gazzetta dello Sport I affirm that, with the passage of time, the reality is becoming more and more “obvious and noisy”: Lukaku and Chelsea, together, do not work.
In the Belgian’s heart, then, “the hope is growing of being a Nerazzurri again very soon, perhaps from next season”. “If you want, I’m here,” the striker told his former team. All this, before the last, sad events: the 90 minutes on the bench against Lille and just seven balls played in the clash with Crystal Palace (negative record in the Premier).
Tuchel claimed that Lukaku “isn’t able to find space” in his gameand that “he doesn’t know what to do”. An absurd situation for a footballer who cost 115 million last summer and that the fans Inter saw him as a traitor who abandoned ship in the storm. The Belgian wants to be forgiven by returning. In fact, he is willing to lower his salary (he earns 12.5 million euros a year) and make Chelsea see that he wants to leaveAdd Gazette. He knows that it will not be easy, but he will try as long as possible.
