Chelsea to raise Falcao swap as Monaco bid for unwanted Lukaku

AS Monaco are interested in Everton striker Romelu Lukaku. On-loan from Chelsea this season, TMW says Lukaku's representatives are in contact with AS Monaco and Borussia Dortmund for next term.

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is understood to have decided to cash in on Lukaku and Monaco's interest sets up the prospect of a swap deal involving Radamel Falcao.

At Dortmund, coach Jurgen Klopp sees Lukaku as a replacement for Robert Lewandowski, who will move to Bayern Munich at the end of this season.

Everton are also keen to keep hold of Lukaku, but unlike ASM and BVB, cannot offer Champions League football to the Belgian.
