Chelsea fans react as Inter turn down Lukaku £85m deal

Chelsea fans have been reacting following the turning down of Romelo Lukaku’s £85m bid deal by the Inter Millan management.

No doubt, Thomas Tuchel is keen to add a world-class forward to his attack as the Blues look to challenge for the Premier League title in the 2021-22 campaign.

Chelsea was hopeful that they could capitalize on Inter’s financial difficulties by making a big offer for Lukaku, although the Nerazzurri have thus far proved resistant.

The latest report showed that the London Club is keen on increasing the offer to €100m.

However, the 28-year-old striker still had to be on the same page. And that’s good, he has no desire to leave, having conquered the Serie A champion’s trophy last season under the orders of Antonio Conte.

With the will of the player, Inter feels solid. But he knows Chelsea will come back in the next few days with an improved offer.

And there, that could be a game-changer. How will Inter react if Chelsea reaches, for example, € 120m? And will Lukaku remain insensitive to the pressure from the club which had recruited him so young at Anderlecht in 2011 and where he never had the opportunity to really shine?

The Stamford Bridge side is in the hunt for a new striker, having seen Olivier Giroud leave this summer.

Chelsea already has Erling Haaland and Harry Kane on their list of targets, but Borussia Dortmund is not willing to sell the former during this transfer window and Tottenham is not letting their star man join their London rivals.
