Mauricio Pochettino To Decide On Romelu Lukaku Chelsea Future



As things stand, Lukaku will only be an Inter player for a couple more months. The striker, who turns thirty this weekend, is only at the Nerazzurri on loan until the end of the season. 
 Inter Milan CEO Beppe Marotta confirmed some time ago that Romelu Lukaku will return to Chelsea when his loan deal ends. What has been more of a mystery is what will happen after that.
 The Nerazzurri CEO has stated that it will be up to the two clubs to see if they can agree a new loan deal. Moreover, the player’s form has always looked to be a key factor. Whilst Lukaku has started to get back to his best and be decisive in recent matches, the fact that this
has been an inconsistent and injury-hit campaign for him has made the Nerazzurri less interested in bringing him back for another season. 
 According to the Mirror, Inter have little interest in bringing Lukaku back. Mauricio Pochettino To Decide On Romelu Lukaku Chelsea Future According to the Mirror, incoming Chelsea coach Mauricio Pochettino will play a decisive role in deciding on Lukaku’s future
The Argentine is anticipated to be named coach for the upcoming season soon.
Chelsea has a huge roster, but they are lacking a center-forward who is good enough to start.
Returning Lukaku would offer Pochettino the option of having a true number nine to base his attack on.
The Belgian curiously represents a cost-effective alternative currently despite costing Chelsea a staggering £97.5 million in 2021.
Pochettino, a former coach of Paris Saint-Germain and Tottenham Hotspur, may as a result bring Lukaku back into the fold.
In any case, Lukaku will return to Stamford Bridge this summer, according to the Mirror.

Inter have made the asking price clear for wingback Denzel Dumfries during the summer transfer window clear, with incoming Chelsea coach eyeing up a move for the Dutch World Cup star.

This according to Italian news outlet Repubblica.it, who report that the 27-year-old is a major target for the Argentine who is expected to take over at Stamford Bridge, and that the Nerazzurri would expect a fee of at least €40 million for his signature. Dumfries’s future at Inter has looked uncertain for some time now, with the 26-year-old former PSV man having been strongly linked as a possible sale during the summer transfer window should the Nerazzurri need to bring in cash from the market. The likes of Chelsea and Manchester United have been reported to be interested, whilst Barcelona have reportedly also enquired about the Dutchman for the summer transfer window. However, in March Gianluca Di Marzio reported that Dumfries is no longer a major target for Chelsea as he had been in the past. The situation at Stamford Bridge has been in flux, however, with Graham Potter removed as head coach just a few months after taking over, replaced with Frank Lampard on an interim basis.

Frank Lampard has become the first Chelsea manager in the club's 118-year history to lose his first four games in charge.   Lampard returned to Stamford Bridge on April 6 for a short-term spell until the end of the season following the dismissal of Graham Potter. However, matters certainly haven't gone to plan so far, and Lampard has now broken an unwanted record, as reported by The Mirror.  Chelsea were beaten 1-0 by Wolves in Lampard's first game of his second stint in charge and that was followed by a 2-0 defeat to Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals. Last weekend Chelsea lost 2-1 at home to Brighton in the league and then on Tuesday they were eliminated from the Champions League with another 2-0 gloss against Real Madrid. Following that, the Blues have fixtures against Arsenal, Bournemouth, Nottingham Forest, Manchester City and Newcastle.

The newspaper claims Blues’ officials will travel to Italy next week to discuss the future of Lukaku, who is due to return to Chelsea in the summer when his loan deal expires at the end of the season.  The Belgium striker moved to Inter on a season-long loan deal from Chelsea last summer and has impressed at the San Siro Stadium, scoring nine goals and registering three assists in 26 appearances across all competitions.  The West Londoners are planning a summer clear-out in order to meet the Financial Fair Play requirements after spending £323m in the winter transfer window on eight new players as well as splashing out close to £300m last summer.
