Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku has rejected a bumper contract offer from Chelsea.

Chelsea have explored the prospect of signing Lukaku for a second time, reports Corriere dello Sport, and made a contract offer to his minders.

Chelsea tabled a package worth €10m-a-year, but Lukaku has rejected the proposal.

The Blues were also prepared to pay over €100m to Inter for the Belgium international, knowing the Nerazzurri's owners, Suning, need to sell to ease debt problems.

However, the deal now appears off after Lukaku's decision.
