Thomas Tuchel believes Romelu Lukaku will create space for Kai Havertz, Timo Werner and Christian Pulisic with Chelsea's frontline missing his ability to hold the ball up as striker edges closer to £98m move

Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel believes that the signing of Romelu Lukaku will help to bring out the best in the likes of Kai Havertz, Timo Werner and Christian Pulisic.

The Blues are on the verge of securing the services of Lukaku for £98m and the signing will come as a relief to Tuchel who's side struggled in front of goal last season - despite their Champions League triumph.

Tuchel has now claimed that Lukaku will bring the best out of his other attackers, who will be looking to improve from last season.
