Chelsea boss Pochettino admits Lukaku situation at stalemate

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino concedes Romelu Lukaku's situation is in limbo.

Inter Milan have pulled out of a deal for their loanee, with Juventus stepping in. However, Al-Hilal are also in contact.

Pochettino said: "No, at the moment. Nothing is changing. It is clear like I explained the last day. I think maybe for you it is a situation that is special but I think it is not effecting us because we arrived to a new environment.

"We have the players that we had and we are so happy with the attitude and the way they are working. We need to improve the squad and team and we are working on that. It's good to get to know all the players and like Raheem said we have young players and they need to show big quality.

"They might not be for now but they may be an important player for the future or involved in the first team."
