Romelu Lukaku Hopes to Return to Inter Milan Soon
The 28-year-old also spoke in an interview that he wanted to go back to Inter Milan shortly. According to him, he said: “I’m not happy with the situation, this is normal,” said Lukaku at the time. “But I am a worker and I must not give up.”
The Belgian has scored seven goals in 18 club appearances since he returned to the English Premier League this summer. He has also been hampered by injury and illness and, at times, found himself left out of the starting line-up when fit.
However, Lukaku has had a recent upturn in form, he scored in his last two Premier League games for Chelsea. He was asked about his role with the clubhead coach and he said: “I think I needed a performance like this today. The manager has his reasons but I kept working hard.” “It’s a good win and personally for me, I’m happy. Balls from crosses and the movement in the box – I try to be less static.”
He ended his interview by apologizing to Inter Milan fans, he said the way he left the club was not right that he should leave in a better way and said he hope he return to Inter Milan in the nearest future and not at the end of his career, but at a still good level to hopefully win more with the club.
