Five strikers who can replace Diego Costa at Chelsea FC
By Vijay Vemu
5. Romelu Lukaku
Romelu Lukaku has been one of the most sought after strikers in Europe and there is a very good chance he will be at a new club next season. The Belgian, who was previously at Chelsea and sold to Everton for 28 million pounds last year, was the Toffees best option on offense as he scored 25 goals last season in 45 appearances.
But he reportedly is looking to move to bigger clubs and was reportedly looking to be back at his old club. He was moved on loan to Everton because he wasn’t fully developed as a striker but now he has and is looking to move to a bigger place. Lukaku has been linked to all sorts of teams from Chelsea to the French giants, PSG according to the Sunday Express. He said he has put his faith into his agent to determine his future. As of right now Lukaku is representing Belgium at the Euros.
There are steady links with Lukaku back to Chelsea FC but this deal probably won’t happen. Chelsea have been heavily linked with other strikers and it is looking more and more like Lukaku may be going back to Everton. The Toffees will be under new management and are looking offer him a new deal with higher wages according to ESPNFC.
It looks like their won’t be a reunion but you still can’t rule out the Blues in the chase for Lukaku, if he leaves Goodison Park.
