Tuchel wants 25-goals a season striker as Haaland alternative after Dortmund demand £150million

Chelsea have identified an alternative to Erling Haaland after Borussia Dortmund set a £150million asking price for the striker.

According to The Daily Telegraph via Metro UK, Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku is an alternative option at Stamford Bridge should Haaland be deemed unavailable, with Chelsea keen on signing a striker this summer.

Lukaku joined Chelsea as an 18-year-old in 2011 but played just 15 times for the club before joining Everton.

The 27 year old striker later left Everton for Manchester United in 2017 for £75million before joining Inter Milan in 2019.

Lukaku has established himself as one of Europe’s top strikers and has scored 25 goals in all competitions for Inter Milan this season.
