Lukaku returned to Chelsea in the summer of 2021 in what was a big money move. After proving his mettle while playing for Inter Milan, the Belgian international decided to return to his former club. But, things didn’t go according to plan for him in London.
And, he was sent out on loan back to Inter Milan last season. While the Italian club were expected to sign him on a permanent basis, they decided against it. He was even linked with a move to Juventus. But, even that didn’t go through.

Given his recent form, the Magpies are willing to pay the €42 million needed to land him at their club. They have gone from strength to strength over the past few seasons and are currently playing in the Champions League as well. While they have assembled a quality squad, they are still in search of an ace striker and they feel Lukaku could be a great option in the short term.
But, the English club are not the only one ready to pay, even Roma are ready to prise him away from Chelsea. As a result, Newcastle United will have to battle it out with Mourinho’s men for the services of the Belgian international.
