Chelsea to entertain offers for Lukaku

Chelsea are prepared to listen to offers for star striker Romelu Lukaku, according to Daily Express.

Jose Mourinho is not a big fan of the Belgian striker and he is looking to cash in on him at the end of the season.

Daily Express has suggested that the Portuguese manager does not want to sell Lukaku to a Premier League rival and would rather send him abroad.

Everton were hoping to try and turn the player’s loan move into permanent deal, but it appears the Belgian will not be staying beyond the current season.

Lukaku has a long list of suitors among top European clubs, with Borussia Dortmund and AS Roma believed to be leading the chase.

Everton kept their Champions League hopes alive as they defeated Swansea City at Goodison Park, with the Toffees priced at 13/10 to defeat Newcastle at St James’ Park and put extra pressure on top 4 rivals Arsenal.

    I understand that he did well in west Brom & currently doing well in Everton the fans actually want to see him on top, i like lukaku as a person & also as a player, ther first time i see him in chelsea i said to myself that he has come to replace ‘Drogba’ former chelsea skriker, ”as a black” it’s because he wants to play for his dream club that’s why he’s fighting to play well these days which he had to. During his first season in chelsea fans expected him to play as despirate like ”Drogba” but he ‘s playing his own style ‘fine’ but i thank God he’s making a very good impression to fans who’s following his records ‘i did like it”, A.V.B sent Lukaku on loan in 2011/2012 & another loan too in 2013/2014 he’s on top now & he’s in everybodies mind if Jose Mourinho will call him back to d club but i can see him signing a long term contract with his club chelsea, take a look at” Victor Moses and Juan Mata” Moses is on loan to Liverpool due to his style of play & Juan Mata was sold to Man United due to his style of play cus ”Mourinho” does not like a player relenghting with ball in d field of play, & also ”Matic” that was sold by d club but the club went and grab him back when they discovered him, Jose is building his team, i like him to be in chelsea, Lukaku should be cam’ Jose shall one day go for him in d nearest future he should remain with his form, take a look at Jose Mourinho’s strong players when he first came to chelsea ‘re currently going through difficult time now such’ Ashley Cole, John Obi mikel & lampard even his main michael Essien has to leave the club cus’ he want to flow with his career, Lukaku should just remain adamant to the situation and watch, CR7 has a fighting spirit even when his team is going weak he boost, but i am not judging we’re still leaning, Benzima9 in real madrid lost total form he said he had to go watch ”Zeden’s” video in madrid to ups his Game he never hide his identity he told reporters i pray Jose to give him time & undersand and call him back to d team….

    That’s all b.s. Don’t tell me he’s lucky to be at Chelsea when he’s only played in one competitive match for them in 2 seasons and it was for only 30 minutes of extra plus penalties against the best squad in the world… How can you judge him as weak against big teams AFTER TWO MATCHES? (I had forgetten he played in one BPL game against Villa for Chelsea)Especially seeing the great season he had last year for West Brom. He’s already proved himself in the BPL so why loan him to Everton who don’t have any European matches on the cards this season. What type of big game experience will he acquire playing against the same squads he did last season? Mourinho just didn’t want to deal with him after that. That’s ridiculous logic… Mourinho never gave Lukaku a chance to prove himself. I’m sure with players like Hazard, Oscar and Willian around him he can put up insane numbers but he actually needs to get MATCH TIME with them. How is he going to be “Chelsea ready” playing for Everton. Now Mourinho is ruining Lukaku’s mindset with the satements he’s making. He may have had a hold on CR7’s personalty but Lukaku is obviously no CR7. He’s going to wast a HUGE TALENT if he keeps up his bickering…

    Lukaku is a player who’s futunate to play in chelsea, he shall make histry in future if he ups his games, if you’ll understand Jose Mourinho ‘lukaku’ flow in his goal scoring when comes to play with non -small team & not somebody who’s weak to perform against big team, Lakaku is a future star & Jose has not found the quality he needed from him when that quality come even if he is sold mou’ ll go for him, he ‘s on loan jose wants him to be more experienced before he can play for him, there’re so many sheet fighters in d club so u have to ups ur games to play for the blues manager, you have to be an incredible player before you can convince him, his on loan is to ease the pain of lost trophy

    Obvious he wouldn’t have a problem with Hazard. You’re missing the point… Mourinho wouldn’t of had to bring Eto’o in if he hadn’t loaned out Lukaku. Considering Lukaku scored 20+ for West Brom last season while starting at only 19 years old and has been a handful while playing for Everton this season, then no. I would have to say I’m not overrating him in the slightest… He was given ONE chance to prove his worth in what? Thirty minutes of extra time plus penalties against BAYERN of all teams. That’s terrible logic. I never said give Lukaku the reigns at striker if he had stayed but I bet if he did Chelsea’s strikers would definitely have more than a COMBINED 15 GOALS. THAT’S TERRIBLE. If Lukaku can score 30+ in not even a full 2 seasons, 20+ for WBA helping them to safely stay in the top flight and score 10+ for Everton who are quitely fighting for European football, how can you say he could be a flop so get rid of him while the chance is good. He single-handedly scored 15 or so of those 20+ for WBA all by himself, off his own will and power. And he’s been doing the same while at Everton. If you put him around guys like Hazard, Oscar, and Willian it will only get easier for him. With quality around him like that compared to what he worked with at WBA and Everton. NOT EVEN CLOSE! We’re talking about a kid who has been compared to Drogba on numerous occassions, and rightfully so… If given a chance at Chelsea, I could see him scoring 25 at least… If he can score 20+ at WBA, then he could definitely top that with the quality he would have around him at Chelsea. Why go out and spend 50-75 million for Costa or Falcao when you have a beast of a 21 year old biting at the chance to get first team action to prove his worth… That’s such a waste when Chelsea are going to need some new defenders across the line and that’s going to be sooner then later. And besides, who’s to say if Chelsea get Costa or Falcao they don’t flop from the pressure of the BPL? And they’ve both played or are playing for Atletico. Same team as Torres… I mean, come on, Falcao plays in France and might as well be made of plastic with the way he’s been getting injured. PLUS HE’S 28 ALREADY! Why pay such a massive amount for that? So let’s leave him out of the mix please… Lukaku has played and flourished in the BPL already. He’s the best bet. I just hope he actually gets a chance before he gets ran out of town…

    ._.
    …….
    Mourinhos logic somethimes doesnt make sense,

    But somethimes without getting it, it does.
    Lukkaky scored 20 what goals at everton.
    But who says he wil be able to do so at chelsea?
    Who says his style of play wil add something to chelsea, insted of fucking it up more.??
    I think mou wil sooner or later try to get a top attacker to chelsea and he wil try to offload his attackers sooner or later..
    I bet players like diego costa, falcao or somethig wil join up soon.
    But wich player would he need to cash in on?
    Eto!? Neh.. Just got the guy and hes doing good.
    Torres? Could be, but who wwants to pay big money for him( with chelsea not losing too much money?)
    Dembe ba? Wel he stil got somrthing to offer for chelsea and i dont know how many big teams are waiting for that kind of player. So..,,,

    Lukkaku is having a good time loaned out, so his stocks are geting higer and higher.
    If mou sells him now, he might earn big money.
    Mabye your right and such that lukkaku could become a big chelsea name.
    But he could also turn out to be. Big youngflop
    At chelsea
    And if that happens…
    No big money transfer for jose~
    Nor
    Extra funds to build HIS team

    So its not that strange of a thing to do

    And … The bryune was good yeah
    But look at the other mid/attacking/def mid they have
    … Faaaaar better then a young belgium kiddo
    Dont you think?

    If this really turns out to be the case, then I believe Mourinho’s self-centered arrogance is really becoming serious problem… Lukaku came to Chelsea in what he himself described as a dream move to playing for his favorite squad. He dealt with being loaned out last season and scored 20 something goals in the process, in hopes that it would get him some kind of playing time seeing Torres and Ba are so terribly inconsistent. Then he misses a penalty in the very first competitive match against the best squad in the world and Mourinho loans him out straight away because he doesn’t want to deal with him after that. Then he brings in old Eto’o because he KNEW that Torres and Ba weren’t good enough options. So why get rid of Lukaku? That’s terrible logic on Mourinho’s part when you have a 19-20 year old willing to do anything to get playing time. Then he comes out in a press conference to call Lukaku out asking him to tell people why he really left. What is that? Obviously he had to agree to the move to Everton but it’s pretty obvious that Mourinho made it clear he didn’t want Lukaku at Chelsea after the penalty miss vs Bayern. He was covering his tracks with that question, trying to make Lukaku look like the bad guy. That’s pretty cynical if you ask me. What’s his problem with the Belgians? He ruined De Bruyne too. Mourinho barely gave him any playing time then came to the conclusion he wasn’t good enough apparently… Meanwhile, De Bruyne tore up the Bundesliga last year while on loan at Wolfsburg. I don’t understand how he can give two 20 year olds SERIOUSLY LIMITED playing and then decide they’re not good enough. MOURINHO LOGIC…
