Lukaku: Chelsea lead Man City, PSG in the race for Inter Milan ace
Chelsea are favourites to land Romelu Lukaku this summer as talk intensifies over a summer move for the Inter Milan hitman.
Lukaku has been linked with a move away from Inter after another impressive campaign in Italy.
The Belgium hot shot has 19 goals from 26 appearances in Serie A, plus four in five in the Champions League.
And today he’s been linked with both Chelsea and Manchester City as a potential alternative for Erling Haaland.
And Betfair have priced Chelsea as the 6/1 favourites to sign him this summer should he move on.
Lukaku joined Inter from Manchester United in 2019, but could be back in England soon.
Chelsea signed him in 2011 but he failed to make the grade and spent three seasons on loan at West Brom and then Everton before moving to Goodison Park on a permanent deal.

He joined United for two seasons before heading to Italy.
And now aged 27 he is one of the hottest properties on the planet again.
PSG, Bayern Munich and Juventus are also in the mix for his signature and are rated at a better chance than Pep Guardiola’s City at 14/1.
City are looking for a replacement for Sergio Aguero but are hoping to sign Haaland from Borussia Dortmund.
Chelsea spent big on Timo Werner last summer but he has so far failed to hit the heights he did in Germany.
PSG may need a replacement for Kylian Mbappe should he decide to leave with his contract coming into its final year.
However some reports suggest Lukaku is happy in Milan and will not look to leave the club while Antonio Conte remains in charge.
Conte had wanted to sign Lukaku for Chelsea previously before he joined United and the pair have combined well in Italy.
Inter are well positioned to win the title this year, sitting six points clear of AC Milan with a game in hand, and ten points ahead of Juventus.
