The twenty-eight-year-old striker left Chelsea in 2014 after making just 15 appearances there following his arrival at Stamford Bridge from Anderlecht in 2011.
One of the most in-form strikers in Europe, Lukaku scored 87 goals in 166 games for Everton between 2014 and 2017 and found the net 42 times in 96 appearances during his two-year spell at Manchester United before signing for Inter in 2019.
He scored 24 goals in Serie A last season, helping Inter to their first title in 11 years as the club put an end to Juventus’ nine-year reign as Italian top-flight champions.
