Reports from Italy have claimed that Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku is prepared to get the lawyers involved as he looks to get his move away this summer.
According to Corriere Dello Sport, the Belgian international is prepared for discussions as soon as his season comes to an end following tonight’s game against Estonia.
The reports in recent weeks have claimed that the Blues are not willing to offer Lukaku out on another loan to Inter Milan after he helped them to the Champions League final this season.
Even though this is perfectly within Chelsea’s rights, given the fact they actually own the player’s contract, it seems this has not gone down too well with the player.
Lukaku getting lawyers involved
Despite not being a guaranteed starter for the Italian side in the past campaign, it seems as if the 30-year-old was far happier being part of their squad than his sole season back at Stamford Bridge.
It feels as if the bridge has been completely burned between Chelsea supporters and the player too, with many not hoping for him to make a return.
Reports over the last few days have claimed that the owner Todd Boehly has instructed the new manager to feature Lukaku in his plans next season, taking into account how difficult it will be to ship him off on a permanent deal.
There were claims that the lucrative opportunity to play in Saudi Arabia had been presented to the Belgium international, although he was not as keen on that as some of his teammates.
It has been reported that N’golo Kante is about to sign a contract with the league champions following his deal with Chelsea coming to an end.
