Romelu Lukaku 'holds Chelsea shirt' after completing transfer medical in Milan

 



Romelu Lukaku appears to be holding a Chelsea shirt as the Belgian moves closer to a return to Stamford Bridge.


Inter Milan ace Lukaku is believed to have had a medical in Italy ahead of a transfer and looks set to be unveiled as a Blues player soon.

With a club record fee of £97.5million on the table, the final checks are being done this week to make sure there are not underlying concerns that would make their investment too risky.
