Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte is very keen on signing Romelu Lukaku, but the Chelsea striker has now reportedly been offered to Real Madrid.
Tottenham target Romelu Lukaku offered to Real Madrid
Marca are reporting today that Lukaku is among the strikers who have been offered to Madrid.
Madrid, who won the UEFA Champions League this past season, wanted to sign Kylian Mbappe, but the France international forward signed a new contract with Paris Saint-Germain.
So, Chelsea striker Lukaku has been offered to Los Blancos, according to Marca.
Blow for Antonio Conte
Now, this will come as a blow to Tottenham and their head coach Conte.
That’s because the former Chelsea and Inter Milan manager wants to bring the 29-year-old striker to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the summer transfer window.
Corriere dello Sport (print edition, page 10, June 4, 2022) have reported that Conte wants Tottenham to sign Lukaku.
The Tottenham head coach reportedly plans to pair the £350,000-a-week (SalarySport) striker with Harry Kane.
Madrid are arguably the biggest club in the world, and a move to Los Blancos would be very appealing to Lukaku.
However, it remains to be seen if the La Liga champions would want to sign the 29-year-old.
Karim Benzems is doing well despite being in his mid-30s, and Madrid would want a striker in his early-20s.
