Will Romelo Lukaku stay Inter or go back to Chelsea?
Inter CEO Marotta speaks on Lukaku’s future
Lukaku enjoyed a successful spell at Inter between 2019-2021 during which he scored 50 goals. Along with strike partner, Lautaro Martinez, he became on of the most sought after strikers in the world. This made Chelsea bring him to Stamford Bridge for a whopping €113.00m.
However, after a frustrating season and squabble with coach at the time, Thomas Tuchel, the Belgian was sent back on loan to Inter Milan to find his shooting boots. Sadly, this did not turn out in the striker’s favor. This season so far, the 29-year-old has managed to find the back of the net just five times.
What did Inter CEO Marotta say about Lukaku’s future?
In conversation with Sky Italia, Inter Milan CEO Beppe Marotta stated: “The Romelu Lukaku loan was for one season, so on June 30, regardless of how well he plays, he’ll go back to Chelsea.
“This has been an unprecedented season. I’m referring of course to the World Cup. The problems we’ve experienced have been experienced by other clubs too and the players who played at the World Cup.
“Lukaku is a case in point. Marcelo Brozovic isn’t the Brozovic we know. Lukaku hasn’t found the fitness he needs to play his best football. He’s still not at his best or the player we got to see in years gone by.”
