AS Roma signed Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku on a season-long loan from Chelsea. The Seria A side officially confirmed the move on Thursday.

The agreement between Roma and Chelsea doesn’t include a clause for a permanent transfer, meaning that Lukaku will return to London once the 2023-24 season wraps up.

Lukaku spent the last season on loan with Inter Milan, where he scored 14 goals and dished seven assists in all competitions. Inter was initially keen on bringing back the 30-year-old but pulled out of transfer talks with Chelsea this summer after Lukaku reportedly flirted with joining their bitter rivals Juventus.

Chelsea preferred to let Lukaku leave for a transfer fee, but the lack of interest made them reconsider their stance. Roma, in need of a striker, pushed hard to sign the player, and the two clubs ended up striking a loan agreement.

Lukaku is expected to help Roma survive the absence of the club’s star striker, Tammy Abraham, who is dealing with a serious knee injury and won’t be available at the start of the season.

“The welcome I’ve received from this club and its fans has excited me and given me even more motivation to give my all for my new team,” Lukaku said after his move to Roma was completed. “As an opponent, I felt the atmosphere of the Stadio Olimpico and felt the warmth of the Romanisti.”

Striker Romelu Lukaku is making a big return to Italy just one year after leaving Inter Milan to join Premier League powerhouse Chelsea in a transfer worth €115 million. After a disappointing 2021-22 campaign with the London club, Lukaku now rejoined Inter on a season-long loan.

Inter confirmed the news on Wednesday by sharing a video featuring Lukaku and club’s president Steven Zhang.

Lukaku originally joined inter in a club-record €80 million transfer in 2019. In the next two seasons, Lukaku established himself as one of the best strikers in Seria A, scoring 64 goals and adding 16 assists in all competitions. After he helped the club win its first domestic title in more than a decade in 2020-21, Chelsea came calling and broke their won club transfer record to get him to Stamford Bridge.

However, Lukaku’s spell in London could barely turn out worse. He struggled with form and had a hard time fitting into Thomas Tuchel’s system. The 29-year-old would go on to score just eight goals in Premier League during the 2021-22 season.

After losing the domestic title to crosstown rivals Milan this season, Inter will now hope that they can get the version of Lukaku from two years ago to help them reclaim supremacy in Seria A. On the other hand, Chelsea is moving an unhappy player while gaining some financial relief. Reportedly, Inter agreed to pay a $12 million loan fee and cover Lukaku’s £300,000 weekly wages.

Striker Romelu Lukaku was given a warm welcome to Milan on Thursday morning after arriving at the airport to complete a move to Inter Milan from Manchester United.

On the last day of the summer transfer window, Manchester United has agreed to sell the Belgian forward to Italian giants Inter Milan for a fee of approximately $93 million. The move comes after a long search by Inter Milan for a top-tier striker as they look to challenge for the Serie A title this season.

Manchester United made the decision to try to sell the striker, for which they paid an $80 million fee plus $18 million in add-ons, back in the summer of 2017.

Lukaku played well at times but frustrated with his inconsistency and lack of big performances in big games for the English club. Now, the club has apparently just decided to go ahead and move in a different direction as they look for a new goal-scorer.

Lukaku will have a new start with the Italian club, where the 26-year-old will be an unquestioned starter. His presence should help the club look to knock Juventus off of the Serie A throne and perhaps even advance far in the Champions League knockout rounds.
