Chelsea move for Romelu Lukaku would be a 'no brainer' for the striker if Antonio Conte makes an offer claims Danny Murphy as Everton forward refuses to sign a new contract

Everton striker Romelu Lukaku should say yes to Chelsea if they make a bid this summer, according to Danny Murphy.

Lukaku, the top scorer in the Premier League so far this season, has already said he will not renew his contract at Goodison Park, leading to speculation he will leave this summer.

The biggest clubs in the Premier league and around Europe are expected to show interest in Lukaku, and former Liverpool and England midfielder Murphy thinks Stamford Bridge would be his best option.
