Romelu Lukaku not leaving Chelsea

One of the first things that Jose Mourinho is believed to have done since re-signing for Chelsea was to contact Romelu Lukaku and tell the highly rated Belgian striker that he is an important part of his plans for next season.

An impressive campaign for West Bromwich Albion on loan last year has persuaded Mourinho that Lukaku should be a player part of his first team plans.


Lukaku was also linked with a move to Juventus, but Chelsea now intend to keep the striker.
