Lukaku pictured with Chelsea shirt ahead of return to the Premier League.

 


The return of Romelu Lukaku


Chelsea’s hunt for a goalscoring number


 9 has taken them, via repeated efforts 


to sign Erling Haaland, to former Chelsea


 forward Romelu Lukaku. The Belgian 


enjoyed a prolific campaign in Italy last


 season, notching up 24 goals and 


10 assists as he helped fire Inter Milan 


to the title for the first time in a decade.




His exploits alerted Chelsea, who have


 swooped in amidst Inter’s financial 


crisis to negotiate a deal for the 28 year


 old, thought to be in the region of 115 


million euros (97 million pounds)



Despite having spent 45 million pounds


 on Timo Werner last summer, Chelsea


 are clearly of the opinion that another


 goalscorer is needed, something that 


the fact Jorginho finished as their top 


goalscorer last season can attest to.



In Lukaku, they will be getting one 


of the best, who has already excelled 


in the Premier League and now in Serie A.



Pictures surface of Rom holding 

a Chelsea shirt



The excitement for the transfer was 


turned up another notch on social media 


today, as pictures of Lukaku holding 


the new Chelsea home shirt surfaced 


on twitter.



Amid rumours that the signing 


could be announced tomorrow (Tuesday),


 there are some fans that even believe 


the forward could be in line to play in 


the super cup tie against Villareal next 


Wednesday.



Will Lukaku prove to be a hit in west 


London second time around?

Breaking news: Finally good news for Chelsea fans ,as Chelsea seal the deal for a new left back ,amid chilwell being injured ,the blues are not stopping on this ....

  Despite the latest encouraging news on Ben  Chilwell, Chelsea fans still want to see a  replacement left-back recruited in January,  amid concerns that the Englishman's season  could be jeopardized by surgery.  Chilwell, 25, tore his partial ACL in a Champions  League triumph over Juventus 4-0 a month  ago, and the setback has undoubtedly  destroyed the Blues' season.  Marcos Alonso, Callum Hudson-Odoi,  and Saul Niguez have filled in for the ex- Leicester man since he was ruled out for an  extended period, but none of them have had  the same impact as Chilwell.  This is because Chelsea's form has been mixed  since the Juventus victory, with Thomas  Tuchel's team having a win percentage of  only 29% in all competitions.  Despite the manager's recent comments, this  low percentage has encouraged Blues fans  to urge action in this position in January.
