Jose Mourinho breaks silence on Romelu Lukaku transfer as Chelsea face loan exit after flop

Jose Mourinho appears to have broken his silence on the move from AS Roma to Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku during the summer transfer window, although he did not give details of a deal. This is because there is only a week left on the market in most parts of Europe which would severely limit the options the Belgian has unless he moves before then. His career at Stamford Bridge has been a disappointment so far given the club paid £97.5million to bring him back in 2021 after playing in his formative years as a youngster.

While the 30-year-old got off to a good start, a mix of injuries and Covid affected his availability before an unauthorized interview with Sky Italia severed ties completely. The striker returned to his former club Inter Milan on loan for the season which ended in defeat in the Champions League final.

The Nerazzurri were keen on another return as Chelsea looked to sign him permanently this summer, but parted ways following rumors of a deal with Juventus. It seems unlikely that the Bianconeri can secure a move as Saudi Arabian teams have been rejected by the player.
