Chelsea are putting the finishing touches to Romelu Lukaku’s £97.5 million return to Stamford Bridge.
The Blues and Inter Milan are finalising paperwork ahead of the Belgium striker undergoing a medical.
He will rejoin Chelsea seven years after his departure for Everton in 2014.
He is poised to sign a contract worth around £200,000 per week after tax.

Lukaku’s arrival at Chelsea will push Tammy Abraham further down the pecking order though he is not short of options.
Arsenal, West Ham, Southampton and Atalanta are among the sides keen on the England striker, who Chelsea value at £40m and would only prefer to let leave permanently.
