The dream of an end-of-market night could soon come true. Yes, because Romelu Lukaku has never been as close to Roma as in the last few hours. The Belgian is the great blow with which the Friedkins want to rekindle the enthusiasm of a square impatient with a slow-moving market marked by many names and just as many not. Morata, Scamacca and Duvan Zapata (among others) were supposed to arrive, Sardar Azmoun landed yesterday evening, the Iranian center forward arriving from Bayer Leverkusen. Not enough not to regret Abraham, still in the pits for a long time due to injury.
FURTHER INFORMATION
Rome, Mourinho: «Azmoun will help us, but only if he’s well. Lukaku? Pinto promised me another striker”
The hopes
Here then is that the Giallorossi property, obviously after the approval of José Mourinho, gave the green light to Tiago Pinto to try to bring Romelu Lukaku to Rome, leaving Chelsea after the break with Inter and the flirtation (so far in vain) with Juventus.
The turning point came in the morning: the English club informed the Giallorossi that they were ready to sell the player on a one-time loan without any obligation to buy. The striker then received a call from Mourinho, who coached him at Chelsea before finding him again at Manchester United, and opened up for the Giallorossi.
Travel
To avoid the inclusion of other potentially interested clubs (Juventus and Milan above all, but also PSG and Barcelona), the general manager left Ciampino at 15.50 for London accompanied by Ryan Friedkin and their flight quickly became the most followed in the world on Flight Radar. The goal is to find the team with Chelsea, which should also contribute to the payment of the player’s large salary (about 12 million) and convince Lukaku, who could take a few days to evaluate his options and choose the best solution for his future . In short, the next few hours will be fundamental for a negotiation which, if it reaches the white smoke, would be sensational.
