Chelsea owner, Boehly reaches first agreement for the transfer of a world-class striker
CHELSEA new owner, Todd Boehly has used his contact and reached a transfer decision for the first time in the ongoing summer transfer window.
As it stands, Chelsea have now reached an ‘agreement in principle’ to loan Romelu Lukaku back to Inter Milan, according to reports. Lukaku’s return to Stamford Bridge did not live up to expectations last year and he even struggled to start regularly under Thomas Tuchel.
Heading into the summer transfer window, it became clear that Lukaku was itching for a move back to the San Siro and Inter were also pushing for a deal.
Given the Italian side’s finances, they were only interested in striking a loan deal and Chelsea’s new owner Todd Boehly was prepared to let the Belgian leave.
Inter’s first offer was rejected, but the two parties have returned to the table and now reached an ‘agreement’, according to The Athletic.
