Inter Milan handed a major boost as they look to secure the services of 30-year-old Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku.
According to Rudy Galetti, Inter Milan have an additional week to complete the signing of Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea. The Belgian international’s future has been the talk of the town of late and there is another major update in the saga.
Lukaku has been pushing for a move to Inter Milan for a while now. And, with every passing day a move is becoming imminent. The 30-year-old was on loan at the Italian club last season and he managed to impress the people at the club during his time there.
While his big-money move from Inter to Chelsea didn’t work out as planned, his return to the Italian outfit on loan did manage to revive his career to an extent. After having a decent season with Inter where they ended up in the finals of the Champions League, the 30-year-old is keen on re-joining them but this time on a permanent basis.
While there is a lot of interest from across Europe as well as Saudi Arabia, the Belgian international only wants Inter. And, he has made it pretty clear to all parties involved. Lukaku is ready to take a massive pay cut if needed to ensure he returns to Italy.
The 30-year-old has no intentions of staying at Chelsea and has decided against joining them for pre-season. The Blues manager Mauricio Pochettino has put out a warning during a recent press conference saying that the player needs to return for pre-season.
However, Lukaku is all set to pay the fine for missing training and has decided to avoid returning to Chelsea until the 17th of July according to Galetii.
Meanwhile, with the Beglian all set to be away for another week. Inter have additional time up their sleeves to strike a deal. They are keen on having him in their ranks and are ready to push as hard as possible.
According to the report, the two clubs are set to once again discuss the formula related to a £38 million deal which includes add-ons. The recent developments indicate, there should be a full agreement between both parties in the near future.
