Romelu Lukaku’s status with Roma remains uncertain as the Belgian striker awaits a pivotal meeting between the Giallorossi and Chelsea before reaching a definitive conclusion regarding his future at the Stadio Olimpico.
Lukaku, currently on loan at Roma until the season’s end, finds himself without an option for a permanent move come June.
Matteo Moretto, a transfer expert at Football Italia, has shared the latest developments regarding the striker’s potential transfer via Caught Offside’s Daily Briefing. Moretto disclosed that Roma and Chelsea are scheduled to hold discussions before the season concludes to deliberate on the Belgian international’s future.
Moreover, Moretto indicated that there are limited concrete offers or negotiations at present for the Roma loanee. Lukaku is anticipated to be available for selection on Thursday as Roma faces Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League semifinals.
Lukaku is biding his time to explore his alternatives, including understanding Chelsea’s valuation for a permanent transfer.
Earlier reports from Italy suggested that Chelsea would demand €42m for the former Inter star in the upcoming summer transfer window.
