Romelu Lukaku has a 'great desire' to return to Inter Milan after an underwhelming season back at Chelsea, says Nerazzurri chief Alessandro Antonello... with the Italian club aiming to wrap up a loan deal in 'necessary time' after opening talks

Romelu Lukaku has a 'great desire' to leave Chelsea and return to Inter Milan this summer, says the Italian club's chief executive Alessandro Antonello.

Inter are in talks with the Blues over a potential loan deal for Lukaku, who is set to depart Stamford Bridge after holding crunch talks with Thomas Tuchel and new owner Todd Boehly.

Stamford Bridge officials agree that letting the Belgian striker head out on loan next season is the best solution for all parties, biting the bullet on their £97.5million recruit following a poor campaign in which he scored just eight Premier League goals.
