From Turkey, Marrakech or the Ardentes: how Lukaku and Openda experienced their transfer negotiations
The Londoners want the fate of the Red Devil to be fixed for July 17 at the latest, the date of departure for an American tour. Problem: it is unlikely that everything will be completed by this deadline. If Inter want to complete the transfer as quickly as possible, they are counting on July 23, the day the Nerazzurri also go on tour, to sign the various contracts.
Good news, however: negotiations are progressing. The agreement is not yet in place, but supply and demand are decreasing, according to Gazzetta dello Sport. “This Thursday, the Roc Nation agency resumed contact with Chelsea by videoconference. The English club still requires an effort from the Italians. They are not fully satisfied with the 30 million euros plus bonus offered.
Romelu Lukaku will not resume training at Chelsea: his transfer could be settled in a few days
As a reminder, Chelsea wants at least 40 million in this thorny issue. The club is already aware that it will never recover the 50 million that Saudi Arabia had promised for its colossus. “It would be enough to push the fixed transfer part to 35 million to reach 40 million to make them falter.”
According to the daily, Chelsea, which has already sold for 240 million since the start of this transfer window, should soon open the door. “The English team is indeed more malleable than a few days ago and the requested 40 million could be hit with bonuses.” White smoke could therefore be found quickly.
