Romelu Lukaku will soon be rejoining Inter Milan on loan this season as a deal closes in.
Some final details to be tied up and a final loan fee is to be agreed on, but it’s looking like all parties are working to close the deal very soon. Inter are optimistic in getting a deal done by the end of this week, per below reports.
Exclusive: Chelsea make Richarlison enquiry!
Chelsea fans will be very pleased to see the back of Lukaku, but unfortunately it looks like it’s only guaranteed to be for this season at least.
Fabrizio Romano has explained the details of the loan and it appears that there will not be an obligation for Inter to buy Lukaku at the end of the season-long loan deal, meaning that essentially he could be back at Chelsea this time next year and The Blues having the same problem once again.

There’s no obligation to buy clause included in the negotiation as thing stand. Never been discussed.

Far from ideal, like papering over a crack.
