“30 minutes” – With one call he was convinced to leave Chelsea
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Romelu Lukaku’s loan move from Chelsea to AS Roma is now official, and the Belgian striker seems relieved and excited about the change. Lukaku was not in Chelsea’s plans even before Mauricio Pochettino became the manager, and the Argentine’s arrival didn’t alter that situation.
In an interview with AS Roma’s official channels, Lukaku expressed his eagerness to leave Chelsea and his enthusiasm for joining Roma. He revealed that a call from the club’s owners outlining their ambitions for the team and its fans convinced him to make the move.
Lukaku will be reuniting with Jose Mourinho for the third time, having previously played under him at Chelsea and Manchester United. He is also pleased to find familiar faces at his new club.
Having recently played for Inter Milan in Serie A, adapting to Italian football should be a seamless transition for Lukaku, making him a good fit for Mourinho’s plans, provided he stays fit.
