Lukaku to leave Chelsea - and Roma

A Chelsea forward is said to have agreed a move to Saudi Arabia next summer.

The Blues moved Romelu Lukaku to Roma on loan for the entire campaign, as he was unwilling to come back to Stamford Bridge.

Lukaku, who is enjoying a solid season for Roma, could be thinking about a big payday next summer.

Per journalist Fabio Santini, a deal to take Lukaku to the Saudi Pro League is all but done.

He told TVPlay: "Lukaku? A flashback with Juve is difficult because he has already said yes to a millionaire proposal from Saudi Arabia.

“I say to Roma fans that at the end of the year, one thing is certain: Romelu will leave."
