Ex-Chelsea striker Lukaku was originally identified as an ideal candidate, second only to Haaland on the Blues transfer wish-list. It now appears the Blues will miss out on Lukaku as well, as the Belgian’s agent issued an update which will make for unwelcome reading for the Chelsea faithful. The forward’s agent was asked about the lingering interest from both Chelsea and Manchester City, but responded with “There’s absolutely no problem with Inter. Romelu is on holiday.”The Serie A outfit are thought to consider Lukaku one of their 'untouchable' players who will not be sold under any circumstance.
