Chelsea edging closer to £95m deal to sign Romelu Lukaku

Chelsea were last night inching closer to an agreement with Inter Milan on a deal to bring Romelu Lukaku back to Stamford Bridge.

The fee is expected to be in the region of £95million, just short of the British transfer record set by Manchester City when they signed Jack Grealish but setting a record for the London club.

Inter are keen to secure a replacement before any deal is signed off.

That may foil Thomas Tuchel's hope he might feature in the Super Cup against Villarreal on Wednesday.
