LONDON • Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku will rejoin Italian side Inter Milan on a one-year loan deal after a disappointing spell with the English Premier League club, according to reports on Tuesday.
Inter are reported to have negotiated an €8 million (S$11.7 million) loan fee to sign the Belgian, who reportedly agreed on a pay cut to leave Stamford Bridge.
Lukaku joined Chelsea in a club-record £97.5 million (S$166 million) deal before the start of last season, claiming the transfer was an emotional return home after he played for the club from 2011-2014.
But, after scoring four goals in his first four appearances, the 29-year-old’s second stint with Chelsea quickly turned sour.
He ended this season as Chelsea’s top scorer with 15 goals, but the former Manchester United and Everton player scored only eight times in the league.
