# Expert reveals Romelu Lukaku would only seal England return to join Chelsea

**Italian football expert Conor Clancy believes Romelu Lukaku would only return to the Premier League to link-up with former club Chelsea this summer.**

Lukaku scored [113](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/romelu-lukaku/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/96341/wettbewerb/GB1) Premier League goals while on the books of Manchester United, Everton and West Bromwich Albion but [failed](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/romelu-lukaku/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/96341/verein/631) to net in the top flight in Chelsea colours.

The Belgium international – who starred at Euro 2020 – has been prolific with Serie A giants Inter Milan, with him scoring [64](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/romelu-lukaku/leistungsdatendetails/spieler/96341/verein/46) goals since joining from Manchester United in a [£74million](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49146040) deal two years ago.

It has led to rumours that Lukaku could be heading back to England, although the 28-year-old has [committed his future](https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11860/12323502/romelu-lukaku-says-he-will-be-staying-at-inter-milan-despite-premier-league-transfer-interest) to Inter amid interest from Chelsea and Manchester City.

According to [Tuttosport](https://www.tuttosport.com/news/calcio/calciomercato/2021/07/23-83819887/l_inter_non_vuole_cedere_lukaku_ma_intanto_fissa_il_prezzo), Inter have named their price. The report states it would take a bid of £102.5million for the Italian club to sanction a deal allowing Lukaku to leave the San Siro.

[Forza Italian Football](https://forzaitalianfootball.com/) editor Clancy believes Stamford Bridge is the only possible Premier League destination for the [£142,000-a-week](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/14802663/inter-milan-wages-lukaku-sanchez-young/) frontman.

Clancy exclusively told The Transfer Tavern: *“The only team I can maybe see him joining is Chelsea.*

*“He has unfinished business there but it looks like they’re keen on Erling Haaland instead. If I were Lukaku, I would be staying put at Inter.”*
