Chelsea demanding £40million to sell Chelsea star after rejecting £23million offer

According to Corriere dello Sport via the Sun, Italian giants Juventus have expressed an interest in signing 30-year-old Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku.

The report adds that Chelsea have also raised their asking price for Lukaku to £40million after rejecting a £23million offer from Inter.

Juventus have been holding talks over a deal for Lukaku, who is also attracting interest from Al-Hilal.

Chelsea re-signed Lukaku from Inter in 2021 for £96.5million but the striker spent last season on loan at Inter.

He scored 14 goals in 37 appearances, including 10 Serie A goals.
