Tuchel makes promise to £98 million star – says he is ‘part of Chelsea’ plans
Thomas Tuchel has promised Romelu Lukaku that he still has a “big part” to play in his plans at Chelsea despite transfer rumours that he wants out of the club
Lukaku is a man that is a brilliant goal-scorer and one of the best in the game, but he has not performed at the level that many had expected and hoped for when he made that £98 million move back to Stamford Bridge
And that has led to many reports in the media suggesting that he will be leaving the club and heading back to Italian football with Inter Milan, where he really made a name for himself during his spell at the club
Chelsea have even started looking for possible replacements for the powerhouse, if you believe the reports, as Thomas Tuchel knows that a striker thayt can score 20-30 goals a season is what he needs to win the Premier League.
But despite the fact over the past few days Lukaku has been linked with a return to Inter Milan, Tuchel has come out and handed a boost to the Belgian by telling him that he is still part of the plans at Stamford Bridge
“We don’t reflect on it. The situation at the moment is that we cannot talk to players, cannot sell, and cannot buy,” Tuchel said in his pre-match press conference on Friday afternoon.
“At this moment, we don’t need to think about it. These are the players we have and Romelu still plays a big part in our plans.”

Look, there has been so much speculation on the future of Lukaku, and it has been strange to see that a man that dominated Italian football can struggle so much to score goals in a team full of creativity
Tuchel needs to play to his strengths and get the ball in the right areas, other wise there is no point in the man being at the club just making up the numbers, he is not being used to his true potential
It would be a shock to see him stay at the club in the summer as there is so many rumours that he not happy, but lets see what happens
