Is this the life of a duck egg in the Nakdong River?
“Romelo Lukaku met with an Inter Milan fan about rumors about his move to Juventus and said it was not true.”
Lukaku, who fell into the worst slump, joined Inter on loan last season. Chelsea invested a whopping 113 million euros (about 162 billion won) in signing him, but had no choice but to give him up. Lukaku scored only 8 goals in the league and even exploded explosive remarks such as “I am not happy at Chelsea. I want to return to Inter someday”.
Eventually, Lukaku returned to Inter on loan after one season. His rent is only 8 million euros (approximately 11.4 billion won). Lukaku, wearing the Inter uniform again, smiled broadly, saying, “I feel like I’m home. I’m happy to be back.” He recorded 14 goals and 7 assists across all competitions in the 2022-2023 season.
Lukaku wanted to stay at Inter even after his loan spell ended. He refused to return to Chelsea training and pushed for a complete transfer to Inter. Inter also proposed a bonus of 5 million euros (about 7.1 billion won) in addition to the basic transfer fee of 35 million euros (about 50.2 billion won) and received Chelsea’s approval. Now, if only Lukaku signs the contract, the deal can be finalized.
Inter have also been active in signing Lukaku as they have money to spare after the sale of Andre Onana to Manchester United. Suddenly, Lukaku’s mind was easily shaken when Inter and Chelsea ended their transfer deal.
Lukaku, who seemed to be heading straight to Inter, recently leaked reports that he wants a transfer to Juventus.
Previously, Italian ‘Gianluca Di Marzio’ said, “Lukaku changed his mind through talks with Juventus. Chelsea quickly tried to sell Lukaku, but in this situation, we cannot rule out the possibility of Inter withdrawing from the signing.” It was revealed that Koo’s trip to Inter could be disrupted.
In the process, Lukaku started playing the press through an agent. Local media said, “Chelsea informed Inter about Juventus’ transfer offer, but Lukaku’s agent denied it, claiming Chelsea was lying. Inter found out the truth belatedly.”
Lukaku’s actions came with the worst possible outcome. Following Inter club’s declaration of isolation, Juventus is also not actively involved in his recruitment as the recruitment of Vlahovic has been delayed. As the situation grows impatient, Lukaku is still expressing his love for Inter.
Inter are looking to sign other strikers, including Alvaro Morata. According to Sports Bible, Lukaku met an Inter fan and told him that “Juventus is false news”.
When an Inter fan near his home country’s Belgian training ground asked if rumors of a move to Juventus were true, Lukaku explained: “No, I have absolutely no intention of going to that team.”
Sports Bible pointed out, “Lukaku has similarly said on Instagram that the Juventus rumor is fake. However, the situation is clear when you see the Inter club, player and manager criticizing Lukaku with one voice.”
