According to reports from Italy, Inter Milan is interested in signing Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta as part of a package deal that would also involve Romelu Lukaku returning to the club.

Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Recent speculation has hinted at Azpilicueta’s potential departure from Stamford Bridge. Just yesterday, he was linked with a move to Bayern Munich, fueled by his relationship with former manager Thomas Tuchel. Furthermore, his position as the backup to Reece James could be further threatened by the arrival of Malo Gusto, who is expected to join Chelsea for the upcoming season.
Today, it has been reported that Inter Milan has added Azpilicueta to their list of targets for next season, with the intention of including him in a deal that would see Lukaku return to the Italian club. Lukaku has expressed discontentment recently, as Chelsea is reluctant to take a significant financial hit and loan him out again, despite him being their former record signing.
The final decision now rests with Inter Milan, while Lukaku has received lucrative proposals from Saudi Arabia. Additionally, Inter is reportedly interested in Chelsea’s defender Trevoh Chalobah, and discussions between the clubs have allegedly taken place. Chalobah himself has not ruled out a potential move to Italy, leaving his future uncertain at the moment.
