REPORTS: PSG ready to pay €90m to land Chelsea superstar this summer
According to latest reports, Paris Saint-Germain could reportedly table a massive €90 million summer bid for troubled Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku.
However, the Belgian international made a sensational return to Stamford Bridge last August following a club record £97.5 million transfer from Inter Milan.
Meanwhle, all the excitement surrounding his return has now faded, with the striker going through an injury lay-off and a loss of form.
To make things worse, Romelu Lukaku also recently sparked outrage by expressing his desire to return to the San Siro with the Nerazzurri.
This has sparked exit rumors once again, though Chelsea will be looking to recoup their initial investment in case of a sale.
PSG are looking to pounce on the situation and bring Romelu Lukaku to the Parc des Princes in the summer.
PSG chief Nasser Al-Khelaifi is willing to pay €90 million for Lukaku’s services, which is slightly less than what Chelsea paid Inter to sign him last year.
But the prospect of playing alongside superstars like Lionel Messi, Neymar, Angel Di Maria, etc., could be too hard to turn down.
If Kylian Mbappe were to leave for Real Madrid in the summer, which seems almost certain now, the Belgian would slot right into the centre-forward role for PSG.
Chelsea, meanwhile, have identified Borussia Dortmund star Erling Haaland as a possible replacement, although the club can expect plenty of competition for his signature.
Chelsea play Tottenham Hotspur in the second-leg of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.
