Chelsea lower asking price for Belgium striker

The Blues once again actively introduced new players during the transfer window.

Their spending is huge and more players are expected to come to the club just as more are leaving.

The Premier League giants are looking to sell Connor Gallagher, Armando Broja, Romelu Lukaku and others.

Gianluca Di Marzio says they are so keen to get rid of Lukaku that they are even willing to accept a fee lower than their valuation of Lukaku.

The Belgian striker has been loaned out to Inter Milan and Roma, but the Blues now want a permanent solution.

Lukaku has been linked with a move to Italian giants Napoli this summer, while Victor Osimhen could join Stamford Bridge in a player-plus-cash swap.

Romelu Lukaku is to be sold by Chelsea.

Chelsea had to pay almost £100m to sign Lukaku but they are demanding €40m (£36.7m) to offload a player who has no future at the club.

Reports suggest that the west Londoners are now willing to accept an even lower price for the attacker, which shows how keen they are to get rid of him.

Romelu Lukaku will leave Chelsea this summer

The player was forced to train separately from the first-team squad as his future was being discussed.

Chelsea need to sign a new striker and Napoli’s interest in Romelu Lukaku could be beneficial to all parties.

Signing Osimhen would be a huge upgrade for Lukaku, as the Blues would be getting one of the best players in the world in his position.

Lukaku’s transfer to Stamford Bridge failed miserably, but the only benefit he can bring is that he can help the team introduce Napoli forward Osimhen.
