Harry Redknapp: I am told that Lukaku is going back to Chelsea

Former Spurs boss Harry Redknapp has revealed that he was told that Everton star forward, Romelu Lukaku is heading back to Chelsea for a huge fee. Chelsea sold Lukaku to Everton for £27m and the Belgian has gone on to become a huge player for Everton, topping the goal scorers chat in the English Premier League.


The Birmingham manager told the Standard: “Romelu Lukaku could win the Golden Boot this weekend but he would still have to show more consistency to be a success at Chelsea.

“There’s a lot of speculation that Diego Costa will leave Stamford Bridge this summer having been offered crazy money to go to China and that will give Antonio Conte a massive hole to fill in his team.

“Costa looks like a nightmare to manage at times but he is a real handful, leads the line well and his movement is great.


“Now clubs think they can charge even more for promising players.

“Lukaku’s goal return has been good but he blows hot and cold.

“On a good day, he is very difficult to play against but he has too many quiet performances for me to put him up there with the best centre-forwards in the world.”
