Romelu Lukaku has returned to Chelsea, a club that has rejected him before, and according to some sources preferred Erling Haaland to the Belgian.
So why, and how did Lukaku move to Chelsea? And why Lukaku isn’t Chelsea’s second choice.

Mark Henry will bag a few goals
With money
Gg
One of the best strikers in the current times. A lethal left footed.
5 munites 42 seconds and the answer is money

How chelsea signed Stormzy
Video on cr7 please
They offered inter a thing called money and they accepted
He'll be a major flop… AGAIN…
By paying too much
£110M is too good to turn down.
He is back home 💙
Lukaku is a fraud. Get him out
After Lukaku's last interview, we now know that Inter refused three offers from Chelsea and accepted the fourth just because Lukaku pushed for the transfer. So, as also Pastorello said, unlike the Hakimi transfer, this didn't happen for financial issues
He could talk about love for Chelsea, but we all know that the real reason is that they offered double the salary he was taken at Inter.
“I was only going to leave Inter Milan for Chelsea,” “Kids love Real Madrid, Barcelona, Manchester United. And Chelsea for me, everyone knows what Chelsea means to me. – Romelu Lukaku is 🔵 through and through.
Flopped at MU and will flops at Chelsea. He made a mistake to came to EPL.
Animations keep getting better and better …. Keep it up.
By breaching financial fair play
i dislike and dont fear lukaku because of his poor technique. An elite club needs elite strikers and he certainly is not suarez, aguero, lewa, henry, villa, rvp, rvn, raul, etoo, sheva, etc
He's going to be absolutely insane for us. I'm predicting 30+ goals this season. He's elite.
Ronald next
LUKAKU is bottler, CHELSEA will lose UCL ………
The Thumbnail looks like Meek Mill lol… Another great video 🙏🏿
Thanks Inter. But China…. it is what it is.
Harry Kane isnt something that suits chelsea's philosophy. Well, Tuchel could fit him in, but it would change the whole team. Lukaku would let most of the team do their thing and still be solid.
If he was sold first before Hakimi, i wonder if Hakimi is going to get all the flak?
seems similar to the triangle trade of
Mkhitarian, Aubameyang, and Batshuayi
Lukaku,Dzeko, and Abraham
money
It’s what made me subscribe tbh great insight
I remember him playing at West Brom in 2013, always thought he was an excellent player. I could never understand why Chelsea kept putting him out on loan
the banner is nicer than expected it did wish him luck
He's always been over rated. The contingency for not having a cat in hells chance of getting Haaland.
But, he quite hasn't delivered.
I'm not sure why.
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣
Watching this now like lol
Funny that youtube recommends me this video now, after that interview.
And now Lukaku has a lot of regrets
This video didn’t age well.
Lakaka
If only Rom wasn't so arrogant. His season at Inter didn't help that either.
This aged well
Today Inter agreed a loan deal for Lukaku and he’ll get paid 8M for the year. Came to Chelsea as Lukaku, left as Lakaka
Lmaaaaoooo warra tenure for Lukaka
LAKAKA
This seriously didn’t age well.
loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool
Oh dear 😅
He's was being compared to Haaland
Oh God 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This video has not just aged badly. Its aged with chronic illnesses
