New €130M Chelsea bid tempting Inter Milan to sell Lukaku

Inter Milan are open to selling Romelu Lukaku to Chelsea this summer.

Corriere della Sera says Chelsea have tabled a monstrous €130m bid to sign Lukaku as they ramp up their search for a No.9.

The Blues have monitored Lukaku throughout the summer transfer window after he scored 24 goals to fire Inter Milan to the Serie A title last season.

Stamford Bridge chiefs have also kept tabs on Erling Haaland but they are said to be resigned to missing out on the Borussia Dortmund sensation.

As such, they have stepped up their interest in Lukaku and aim to lure their former player back to west London with an offer Inter may not be able to refuse.

Lukaku spent a brief spell with Chelsea after arriving from Anderlecht in 2011 but failed to make an impression before joining Everton on loan in 2013 and permanently the following year.
