Manchester United Told £80m Transfer Target Will Join Chelsea

Everton forward Romelu Lukaku is ready to snub interest from Manchester United ahead of Chelsea move, according to reports.

The 24-year-old has made it clear he will be leaving the Goodison Park this summer after refusing to extend his contract with the Toffees, drawing interest from a couple of clubs in the Premier League, majorly from Chelsea and Manchester United.

Lukaku has moulded into one of the best strikers in the Premier League, netting 25 goals to finish as one of the top scorers in the league.

It is understood that the Belgian wants to play in a Champions League club next season as his next step in the rising career. There are speculations that Chelsea and United are ready to meet Everton’s £80million valuation of the player.

Reports in the Independent claim that the striker is ready to snub the Red Devils for a move to the Stamford Bridge this summer.

There are strong indications that Lukaku wants to return to Chelsea to prove himself after struggling to impress on his initial spell with the Blues that saw former boss Jose Mourinho sell him off to Everton, where he has grown to become one of the best strikers in the Premier League.
