World Cup winner Alessandro Altobelli has taken aim at Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku.

Lukaku has upset Inter Milan fans, where he spent last season, after holding talks with Juventus.

Discussing Inter's pursuit of Bologna veteran Marco Arnautovic, Altobelli told La Gazzetta dello Sport: “Arnautovic was at Inter 13 years ago. Even though a lot of time has passed, this may help him fit in. And it can certainly have a bearing on the reasoning of the Inter directors.

“Having reached this point, they prefer players who know our league and Arnautovic knows it. Of course, playing for Bologna is not playing for Inter….

“There aren't many strikers at certain costs who can be played. For me Arna is a player who is up to the job, but he's also an emergency option given what happened to the two who were there before.

“Dzeko received a nice offer in Turkey and Lukaku is not even worth talking about, he mocked an entire fanbase, indeed all Italian fans, because there are ways and means to try to achieve your goals."
