Deal Completed: Chelsea Seeks Release Fee, Lukaku Finds Ideal Destination

CaughtOffside is an ideal landing spot for Romelu Lukaku in the context that he will leave Chelsea this summer.

Romelu Lukaku has just completed a successful loan contract at AS Roma. Napoli saw Antonio Conte put pen to paper on a three-year contract this week, and the Italian coach maintained a great relationship with Lukaku when the pair were together at Inter Milan.

With the club ready to sell Victor Osimhen, Lukaku would be the ideal replacement for the Nigerian star. If AC Milan fails to pursue target Benjamin Sesko, it is believed that they will also focus on receiving Lukaku’s services.

Lukaku can go to Saudi Arabia.

 

However, according to CaughtOffside’s sources, the Saudi Pro League is still the destination for Lukaku in the future. Clubs in the Saudi Pro League have made Lukaku a priority target, with Al Ittihad wanting the Belgian to replace Karim Benzema.

Regardless of whether Lukaku performs well at EURO 2024 or not, Chelsea will insist on full payment of his release fee, which is £38 million. Serie A teams find it difficult to meet Lukaku’s salary, so the Saudi Pro League becomes the most ideal destination.
