Romelu Lukaku is seen as an alternative to Erling Haaland for Barcelona, Chelsea and others, but Inter refuse to consider a sale.

The Belgium international is still only 27, but scored 59 goals in 85 games for Inter, along with 58 strikes in 90 caps for his country.

This remarkable form and work-rate have made him hot property on the transfer market, showing the Nerazzurri were right to invest €74m to sign him from Manchester United in 2019.

This remarkable form and work-rate have made him hot property on the transfer market, showing the Nerazzurri were right to invest €74m to sign him from Manchester United in 2019.

Now the Telegraph newspaper claims Chelsea see Lukaku as a viable alternative to Borussia Dortmund hitman Haaland.

At the same time, the Corriere dello Sport suggests Barcelona have a similar idea.

Haaland is their first choice too, but Lukaku would also be on the wish-list, especially if Lionel Messi were to walk away and transform their entire attacking approach.

Barca boss Ronald Koeman already worked with Lukaku at Everton in 2016-17.

However, for all the speculation, Inter have absolutely no intention of parting with Lukaku and the striker admits Inter have taken him to “another level.”
