Romelu Lukaku’s agent has revealed that the Chelsea striker was determined to re-join the Blues while he was still a Manchester United player in 2019.
Lukaku moved from Old Trafford to Inter that summer, scoring 64 goals in only two seasons with the Nerazzurri, before then returning to Chelsea in a £97.5m transfer in August.
The Belgian himself has already admitted that scoring his first goal at Stamford Bridge had been a ‘dream’ since the age of 11. Now, agent Federico Pastorello has explained that the move was on his client’s mind more than two years before it actually happened.
Pastorello also name-dropped Lukaku’s desire to play for Real Madrid at some point in the future.
"The market can offer you certain opportunities. I consider them like trains passing and when the right train stops at the right place, you need to step in and leave," the agent told Sky Sports.
