Inter fans noticed that after his interview apologising to Nerazzurri fans and infuriating Chelsea, Romelu Lukaku has changed his social media profile to describe himself as an Inter player.
The most recent post on both Instagram and Facebook was December 31, the day that Sky Sport Italia aired the controversial interview in which he promised he’d return to play for the San Siro giants soon.
Just months after his €115m transfer to Chelsea, these comments riled up fans of both clubs and manager Thomas Tuchel, who in retaliation dropped Lukaku from the squad for today’s 2-2 Premier League draw with Liverpool.
Now it has been noted that Lukaku’s Facebook page has ‘Inter Milan’ on the biography section rather than his current club Chelsea.
His Instagram still has Chelsea, while the Twitter account has been deleted.
Lukaku has not made any comment since the Sky Sport Italia interview aired, causing a firestorm at Chelsea, while Inter fans have on the whole refused to accept his apology for walking away.
The ultras put up a banner that read: ‘Those who run away with the rain don’t matter to us. Those who matter are the ones who stay in a storm! Ciao Romelu.’
