Chelsea closing in on deal for £375k-a-week star after FIRST offer made!
Reports say that Napoli have made a first bid for Chelsea star Romelu Lukaku this summer.
Lukaku has been in strong form since joining Roma and has scored 18 goals in all competitions this season. but is set to return to CHELSEA FC at the end of the season if he cannot agree a move to a new club.
Recent reports have claimed Chelsea have made the decision to allow Romelu Lukaku leave the club and he will not play for the Blues again, and now he told the club that a move to Saudi Arabia interests him
Howevert – Italian giants Napoli have been the first club that have made an offer to sign Lukaku this summer, as they seek to sign an immediate replacement for the departing Victor Osimhen.
But their offer is said to be around half of the £38million CHELSEA are demanding to let the striker go.
With Antonio Conte now in place in Naples a reunion is one more possible, but Chelsea are not interested in letting Lukaku leave on loan again and will want to get close to that £38 million before they conclude business.
Reporter Iomie Stanley told icfootballews: ‘Lukaku has not had a bad season at Roma – he has been very impressive for the Italian side – but a move back to the Premier League should not happen – he needs to stay away from the English game.
The CHELSEA FC board will not have a very hard time of convincing the big striker to make the move away from the club in the coming weeks as he has shown constantly that he wants to leave.
There will be a few more clubs interested in a move for the big man – but we would not be surprised to see that move happen – as Chelsea know that they could get some major money for the Belgian star.
So it has not come as a surprise that he has probably played his last game for the club and will probably pack his bags at the end of the season on a permanent basis, and Napoli would be a very good move for him to make now that Conte is there.’
