Romelu Lukaku is on his way to London with Chelsea having agreed upon a €115 million transfer fee with Inter Milan for re-signing the Belgian international star striker this summer.
Inter Milan had been reluctant to part ways with the 28-year-old Lukaku in this summer’s transfer window but Thomas Tuchel and Chelsea had stepped up the chase for landing the forward as of late.

Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Chelsea and Inter Milan have reached a much-anticipated agreement which will ensure Lukaku’s move back to Stamford Bridge in the next few days.
Moreover, Romano claims that Chelsea’s offer for their long-term target to Inter Milan does not include any players being sent in the opposite direction but only a fee that runs north of €100 million which lured the San Siro giants to sanction Lukaku’s return to Premier League football with his old club.
Lukaku’s joining the west Londoners this summer is also backed to facilitate the transfer of Chelsea first-team outcast Tammy Abraham to Serie A heavyweights Atalanta who are now in pole position to sign the England international.
