Lukaku: I was worried Inter Milan fans and players didn't want me back

Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku is delighted with the welcome he was given by fans this summer.

Lukaku returned to Inter on-loan from Chelsea, though his season has been marred by injury.

“The Inter fans are really special fans, the best I have seen in the world. They are always there to help the team even in difficult moments," Lukaku declared.

“I was surprised, I thought they were still angry, but I think a lot of people know that I have always had Inter in my heart, even though I left.

“I spoke with my team-mates and the club, explaining to them the reasons why I had left. I came back and I want to stay also in the future, this means that for me Inter is everything.

“Everyone knows that. Now the team and I have to lead the club to success and then we'll talk."
