Lukaku is already the most expensive player in history. However, it could be a steamer in the summer, as a return to the Premier League is in the cards

Romelu Lukaku is a topic that is addressed practically every summer. And this time will probably be no different, as Tottenham are interested in his services, according to Fichajes. Thus, there are at least three destinations in play for the Belgian striker. Chelsea, Inter and Spurs.

The Belgian international left Chelsea for a one-year loan to Inter in the summer, only to be plagued by injuries for practically the whole of the current season, which do not allow him to be who coach Simone Inzaghi would like him to be. Top scorer in every competition.

Lukaku has scored 4 times in 14 games so far, but considering he’s only played a total of 638 minutes, that’s not such a bad record. After all, he proved that he is always a valid member of the squad, last time in the Champions League match against Porto, for whom he scored the only goal of the match.

According to the available information, the 29-year-old striker wishes to move to the Milan club permanently. However, the amount of money that Chelsea will ask for may also play a big role.

Lukaku is clearly the most expensive player if we add up all the transfers, as clubs have spent over 333 million euros for his services, more than Neymar (310 million euros) or Cristiano Ronaldo (247 million euros). One can count on the massive Belgian not coming cheap this time either.

Lukaku to Tottenham?

At this point, it is certainly worth mentioning Tottenham, who are speculated in the English media to be interested in Lukaku, specifically Antonio Conte. After all, they won Serie A together in the 2020/21 season and the Italian coach would like to build on a similar success in the Premier League.

This is one side of the coin, of course, but the other is the fact that there is talk of Harry Kane leaving, which would give the green light to this very transfer (Lukaku – Tottenham).

The England international has made no secret of his ambition to win a trophy at least once in his career and he will be 30 years old in the summer. So it’s high time for him to move to a team that would help him achieve this dream.

But of course, the possibility of Lukaku starting in attack with Kane is in play, as Conte uses the two strikers routinely.

Everything will depend on many variables, of course, but what is certain is that the Belgian striker’s situation is going to be very much up for grabs! In the meantime, however, he and his Inter teammates are looking to the next few games as the Milan side are in contention for all three titles – Serie A, Champions League and Coppa Italia.
