Romelu Lukaku’s career is an enigma. A genuine attacking monster during his first stint at Inter Milan (2019-2021), the Belgium striker made the surprise decision to return to Chelsea. While professing his love for the London club for which he umpired 10 years ago (2011–2012 then 2013–2014), the Red Devil failed to win with the Blues. At the end of the 2021-2022 season, the Anderlecht-trained player had scored only 8 goals in 26 Premier League games played. And the puzzle continued: During the 2022 summer transfer window, Romelu Lukaku signed on his return to Inter Milan for a season on loan. There too the talks of love moved towards the Interior Club. However, not everyone was fooled.
Lukaku will not return, Juve on pole
Last season, we cannot say that Lukaku has regained his level from his first season in Lombardy. At that point, he scored 47 goals in 72 league games with the Nerazzurri. This time only 10 of his shots came in the net. The total is so low that the club’s management wants to keep him even after the loan. In this context, Simone Inzaghi has confirmed that he will not return to Inter Milan.
,I thank him for what he gave us last year. I wanted her with all my might and I still want her with us, I’m sorry for the way it ended, she chose another path. (…) The four attackers I have are developing well, the two new attackers are of high caliber and they must ensure that Lukaku and Dzeko had goals last year“, he said according to the Gazzetta dello Sport transcript. According to the latest rumours, there is a big possibility that he will sign for Juventus this summer.
