Sunday's gossip:
Chelsea and Belgium striker Romelu Lukaku, 30, will not now join Inter Milan - who have decided against a move - with Juventus or a club in Saudi Arabia his most likely destinations. Lukaku is slowly becoming the main story of this summer. Will he become a traitor to Inter fans if he goes to Juve or will he still opt for a rich football retirement in Saudi Arabia?

There are so many criticisms of Romelu Lukaku and I find some of them too harsh. I admit that he hasn't been at a good level physically in recent years, but I still think he has potential. If he gets a little better physically and plays with better players in a better team, he can go back to his old days or get a little closer to his prime. However, whatever happens, I consider the possibility of Lukaku's transfer to Arab teams extremely unlikely. He is only 30 years old, he must stay in Europe and continue to fight for his career.

What kind of better players and better team do you mean? Didn't he play with the Champions League finalists of the season 2022/2023? His physical condition can be a problem, but I don't think that the opinions here mean that Lukaku is bad or that he is not in his prime anymore. It is more about the price that Chelsea wants for him and I am not sure as well whether that is too much. He has good moments in a game, but I also thought that he lacks some speed and isn't the fastest in acceleration. Once he is running he can get pretty fast, but it takes him too long.
