According to La Gazzetta Dello Sport, Chelsea are not interested in bringing Romelu Lukaku back to Stamford Bridge, so Inter have opened talks to extend the striker’s loan at the Stadio Meazza.
The Belgium international returned to Inter on a temporary deal last summer after a disappointing one-year spell at Stamford Bridge, where he had managed just 15 goals in 44 appearances.
According to Gazzetta, Inter and Chelsea directors have recently discussed the future of the 29-year-old given that the Nerazzurri don’t have an option to make his move permanent at the end of the season.

Chelsea are unwilling to bring the striker back and according to the report, they have decided that they won’t rely on him in the future.
The Blues need a sale for circa €70m to avoid a capital loss, so Inter aim to extend the striker’s loan for one more season, while ‘Big Rom’ wants to stay at his current club and is not considering moving elsewhere.
