Chelsea could allegedly offload Romelu Lukaku to Inter Milan following the sale of Andre Onana to Manchester United in the upcoming week.
Lukaku, 30, has been marked as a potential summer outgoing over the past couple of months due to his strained relationship with the Blues. He is said to be not a part of Mauricio Pochettino's plans for next term.
A left-footed powerful striker, the Belgian spent past season on loan at Inter Milan. He failed to reach his usual heights in the Nerazzurri kit, registering 14 goals and seven assists in 37 matches last campaign.
In his column for Caught Offside, reporter Ben Jacobs shed light on how Inter could lure Lukaku away from Stamford Bridge. He wrote:
Lukaku, whose current deal is set to run out in June 2026, could prove to be a fine signing for Inter should a potential deal is completed. He would fill the void left by Edin Dzeko, who recently joined Fenerbahce.
Overall, Lukaku has scored 15 goals in 59 appearances for Chelsea.
Meanwhile, Simone Inzaghi's side are expected to offload Onana to the Red Devils in the near future. They rejected United's first bid of around £38 million, but are set to let go of their star goalkeeper for £51 million.
Manchester United are aiming to sign Onana as they released David de Gea this month. They are expected to accelerate the potential deal in the upcoming couple of days, as per Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla.
