It is not a surprise. Finding an attacker who can plant a certain number of roses per season is not a simple matter. So inevitably, when this rare pearl is on the market, at a rather honest price in football standards, it is normal that it attracts covetousness. Such is the case of Romelu Lukaku. Because in addition to Inter and Chelsea, the Belgian was cited at Juventus, Saudi Arabia (proposal declined by the player) and even… PSG.
But why does he attract so much attention, despite a rather delicate season in Lombardy? It’s very simple, Lukaku is a goal insurance. An essential quality in the world of football. Despite a long injury at the start of the season and a substitute status at Inter, the number ten of the Devils still managed to plant fourteen roses during the 2022-2023 financial year. The year before, during a complicated period in London, he nevertheless finished as the club’s top scorer with fifteen goals. Not to mention his physical impact on the game, where he is able to stuff defenses on his own.
His age and price are also assets that attract big European clubs. At 30, the former Mancunian has great experience while still having good years ahead of him. In addition, he has a more than reasonable price for a player of his stature. Even more so when compared to his fellow strikers. Whether Victor Osimhen is worth 200 million according to Naples and thatHarry Kane is tipped at Bayern Münich against 100 million euros, Chelsea expects less than 50 for their center forward.
The club that will therefore manage to afford the services of the top scorer in the history of the Red Devils will therefore have achieved one of the great deals of this transfer window. But the Lukaku saga is far from over…
