Inter Milan chief executive Beppe Marotta has confirmed that Romelu Lukaku will return to Chelsea once his season-long loan at the San Siro concludes in the summer.
Lukaku was a popular figure with the Italian giants before he was lured back to Stamford Bridge for a second spell in the summer of 2021 in a blockbuster £97.5million move. But after struggling to live up expectations, the 29-year-old was shipped back out to the Serie A outfit on loan before the start of the 2022/23 campaign.
The Belgian striker has been plagued by injuries this season, though, and has netted just five times in 17 appearances for Inter, who have played down the prospect of extending Lukaku's stay at the club.
