The coming summer may finally see the marriage affair between Romelu Lukaku and Chelsea come to an end as sources claim it was an initial deal made between the club and the player’s agent.
Fabrizio Romano claims the Blues will be open to selling the big forward for a transfer fee of £38m (€44m) in the upcoming window. The Belgian international’s exit clause was agreed between his agent and Chelsea last summer.
There is some interest from the Saudi Pro League sides and other big European teams who are desperately in need of a stand-out number nine to lead their attack with his current team As Roma is not exempted
Jose Mourinho perhaps still fancied the qualities of the player he sold in his tenure with Chelsea and brought him to Roma to score for the Italian sides seeing that his strength and mentality for once had reached maturity, he went on to score 20 goals in 44 appearances and was involved in four assists.
The Belgian international will be in action when AS Roma takes on the undefeated Bayern Leverkusen who are unbeaten in almost all competition this season in the Europa League semi-final fixture and Xabi Alonso’s side will finally cement their name in their achieves of greatness but a certain Daniel De Rossi who with his exploits has won the hearts of the Roma board with his winning mentality.
The two coaches who played football in the same era will also face themselves in the same era as the best coaches who played the game.
