Everton striker Romelu Lukaku is ready to quit parent club Chelsea.
The Daily Star says he handed in a transfer request three months ago.
Despite Chelsea trying to persuade him to stay, the 20-year-old insisted on going and eventually agreed a season-long stint at Goodison.
West Brom, who had him on loan last season, wanted him back but the Blues were keen on him joining a bigger club.
But Lukaku, despite being desperate to succeed at Stamford Bridge, is understood to be prepared to go for good if Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho signs another striker next month or in the summer.
