Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku could decide join Antonio Conte at Tottenham Hotspur, according to Gazzetta.it.

The Italian publication has claimed that Lukaku is not happy at Chelsea and could decide to leave the Blues for Tottenham.

The former Manchester United striker worked with Conte at Inter and won the Serie A title last season.

Lukaku spoke highly of Conte in an interview recently released by Sky Sport Italia where he also said that he was not happy at his situation at Chelsea.

Could Romelu Lukaku reunite with Antonio Conte?

In our opinion, it is unlikely that Lukaku will move to Tottenham from Chelsea.

We know that Tottenham and Chelsea are bitter London and Premier League rivals.

Moreover, Chelsea paid almost £100 million to Inter for Lukaku in the summer of 2021.

We do not think that the Blues will sell the striker after just one season.

Even if Chelsea decide to move on the 28-year-old, then they are not going to sell him for anything less than the £97.5 million that they signed him for.

Would Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy be prepared to spend that much money on a striker who will be 29 in May?

We do not think so.
