Anderlecht star Lukaku admits having second thoughts about Chelsea after Courtois deal

Anderlecht striker Romelu Lukaku insists he's not actively seeking a move to Chelsea.

Lukaku has denied he has his heart set on a move to London.

"I want to go to a club where I can develop further. It's not that I just want to be transferred to Chelsea," he said. "At the moment I am patient. I remain at Anderlecht and I am not thinking of a transfer."

Lukaku added that if he did leave Anderlecht he wouldn't join a club that would then loan him on.

Recent Chelsea signing, goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, was immediately sent to Atletico Madrid.

"When I do leave, it will not to be lent on as Thibaut Courtois has been," Lukaku stressed.
