"I'ma Show You How Easy It Is To Cut Ties" - Romelu Lukaku Makes Chelsea Dig After Securing Inter Milan Return

Romelu Lukaku has appeared to aim a dig at his parent club Chelsea after securing a return to Inter Milan this summer.

After just one season at Chelsea following a club-record £97.5 million transfer back to Stamford Bridge last summer, Lukaku's move back to the San Siro was finalised and confirmed last month.

Lukaku scored 15 goals for Chelsea in all competitions last season.

A broken relationship with head coach Thomas Tuchel was resolved by co-owner Todd Boehly who struck a loan deal to offload the 29-year-old ahead of pre-season, offering his full backing to the German.

Lukaku's move didn't work out for any party, other than Inter Milan who cashed in for big money before securing him for a minimal loan fee for the 2022/23 season.

"I'm back baby. I'm very happy," he said upon his signing.

"Remember three years ago when we were here? Good to be back. That's what we are here for (to score lots of goals), I keep my promises you know that. Thanks for having me. Forza, Inter!"

The 29-year-old will return to Chelsea next summer but it's unlikely that he will play for the club again while Tuchel is in charge at Stamford Bridge.

Now he's got his move, Lukaku has started preparing for next season but left a message hinting that it's 'easy to cut ties' if something isn't working out, potentially referring to his Chelsea career.

Lukaku took to Instagram to say: "I'ma probably show you I'm solid first and if the energy ain't right.

"I'ma show you how easy it is to cut ties, no more tries

"Gone…"

His lawyer, Sebastien Ledure, helped him seal his Blues exit and admitted that he couldn't afford to sit around at Chelsea following a dismal year in the English capital.

"He suffered the consequences of that the rest of the season and it made his daily work environment harder."

"However Romelu told me he’s 29 and at the prime of his career, he couldn’t afford to lose another year.

"It’s not a secret him and the coach (Thomas Tuchel) don’t share visions."

Ledure added: “Big clubs I can’t tell the name of wanted to sign Romelu, but it never became concrete because he decided very early that he wanted to join Inter. He talked to the coach a lot just like he did with Antonio Conte in 2019 so he was sure they shared the same visions."
