Lukaku signed a five-year contract at Chelsea, as Thomas Tuchel has added incredible firepower to the team he led to UEFA Champions League glory last season.
It is believed that Romelu Lukaku is now the most expensive player of all time, based on combined transfer fees, as over $400 million has been spent on his talents.
The 28-year-old striker and a well-established world-class player, Lukaku is back with the Blues after joining Everton in 2014. After loan spells at West Brom and Everton, the center forward then joined the Toffees permanently before heading to Manchester United and then Inter Milan.
It is at Inter over the last few seasons that he has truly taken his game to the next level (64 goals in 95 appearances) and he has also been on fire for the Belgium national team.
Lukaku said, “I’m happy and blessed to be back at this wonderful club,” Lukaku said. “It’s been a long journey for me: I came here as a kid who had a lot to learn, now I’m coming back with a lot of experience and more mature. The relationship I have with this club means so much to me, as you know. I have supported Chelsea as a kid and now to be back and try to help them win more titles is an amazing feeling.”
