Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku has spoken about his next move after another successful loan spell away from Chelsea.

Lukaku did well on loan with Roma, and could be set for a permanent exit from Chelsea this summer.

The Belgian has dismissed talks of a return to Belgium, and has told the media he’s currently thinking of his national team and his immediate future.

“That return [to Anderlecht] will certainly happen, much sooner than you might think,” Romelu Lukaku said.

“I miss my mother, my children. I left my country at eighteen and I will return.

“But now only the national team and the future matter. We have to support the players who give us and who have done a good job. 

“I ask the media: ‘Stop throwing fuel on the fire. Let’s move forward’.”
