Transfer window: Unhappy Lukaku desperately eyeing Chelsea’s exit door

Date:

Chelsea striker, Romelu Lukaku, is allegedly unhappy at the club and is eyeing an exit from Stamford Bridge this summer.

The 28-year-old has largely struggled to live up to his £97.5m price tag this term, banking 12 goals in 34 matches across all competitions for the European champions.

Lukaku admitted in an interview to Italian media last year that he was pining for a return to Inter Milan, and while he has not lost the trust of manager Thomas Tuchel, he has been restricted to several substitute outings in recent weeks.

According to Football Insider, Lukaku is ‘fed-up’ of being used as a bit-part player at Stamford Bridge and wants to leave Chelsea after only one season back in the English capital.

The report adds that Tuchel and Lukaku had a behind-the-scenes bust-up over the striker’s physical condition back in January, and his stance since the bombshell interview dropped has not changed.

Lukaku only has five goals in 19 Premier League games for Chelsea this term and is under contract in West London until the summer of 2026.
