Chelsea ready to part ways with top striker

Chelsea are willing to make Romelu Lukaku transfer. The Belgian striker will be joining Napoli in Serie A. He has failed to live up to his best for the Blues. His return to London has been a total let down. At the same time, he is not getting any younger. But, he wants to find his form and keep playing at the top level. So, he is seeking a move away from the Stamford Bridge. The 31-year-old will be making a return to Italy after his Roma days. He is quite lethal in front of goal. Antonio Conte can use a man of his caliber.

Chelsea would want to redeem themselves this time. They had a horrific 23/24 season. The Blues would finish 6th in the Premier League. But, they would fail to qualify for the UEL. Man Utd beat Man City in the FA Cup final to seal the UEL spot. As a result, the Blues will be featuring in the UECL. Moreover, they also lost the EFL Cup final to Liverpool. They want to get back to their best. They have bought in plenty of players. Now, they are focusing on selling players to make room (financially) for new players. As a result, Romelu Lukaku will be making a transfer move to Napoli.

Romelu Lukaku Transfer Saga: Chelsea want him gone

A Romelu Lukaku transfer move away was always on the cards for Chelsea. Despite being a top player, he was quite poor for the Blues. He first joined the Bridge in 2011. His first stint was a goalless one. As per en.wikipedia.org, he made 15 appearances in his first season. He was far from his best for them. As a result, the Belgian was sent on loan and later sold. The Blues got him back when he was at the top of his game.

The Blues bought him back for a stunning £97.5 million in 2021. He was pretty great with Inter in Serie A. But, he would fail at the Bridge yet again. As a result, he was sent back on loan in 2022. He would go on to score 14 times for them. Then, Roma would loan him in 23/24. As per transfermarkt.co.in, he managed to secure 25 G/A for them. Chelsea are wanting to sell him again. Napoli want Romelu Lukaku transfer as soon as possible. They want him to replace Victor Osimhen, who is leaving the Serie A side. The Italian team are open to a player swap plus cash deal for him.

Osimhen in, Lukaku out?

As per caughtoffside.com, Napoli really want Romelu Lukaku transfer. They have managed to convince him to reject AC Milan, Roma and Saudi offers. AC Milan have moved on with signing Morata. As a result, Atletico Madrid want Randal Kolo Muani. Meanwhile, PSG want Victor Osimhen. At the same time, the Nigerian is also okay with PSG move. So, Napoli want to move in for the Belgian. But, now they are planning to use Osimhen as part of the deal.

Romelu Lukaku transfer is a good news for Chelsea fans. He was never great for them. They will now sign a top class striker to replace him. At the same time, Napoli will also be making a great deal. The Belgian has more than 300 goals at the club level. His record with the national team is also great. He has 85 goals in 119 caps. Chelsea fans will be hoping to see Osimhen at the Bridge. He is still young and could be entering the prime of his life. At the same time, Nicolas Jackson is still finding his feet. Whereas, Armando Broja could be leaving altogether.
