Here's how much Roma are offering Chelsea for Lukaku's loan

Roma's offer to Chelsea for the loan of Romelu Lukaku is worth 5 million euros, reports Fabrizio Romano. This is for one season, with the inclusion of a mandatory buyout clause not being discussed for now. The amount offered by the Italians is significantly less than the expected 9-11 million. An important part of the negotiations is the issue of the attacker's salary, because it is high.

The two clubs must agree on how much of it Chelsea will take up, as it would be prohibitive for Roma to pay it all. Lukaku revealed on Saturday that he will fly to Rome the following day to sign his contract. However, there is no information that he has arrived in the Italian capital. Last season, Lukaku again played on loan in Serie A - for Inter. Since returning to London this summer, he has been training apart from Chelsea's first team.
