Romelu Lukaku yet to speak with Chelsea manager

Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku has yet to speak with new manager Mauricio Pochettino, according to The Telegraph.

The Belgium international spent the previous season on loan with Inter Milan and he is eager to return to the Serie A.

Juventus have already agreed personal terms with him, but a transfer looks difficult as they can't afford to pay £34 million.

It is now reported that Lukaku is training with the Under 23s and he is expected to leave before the transfer deadline.

The former Everton man has not spoken with Pochettino yet. He has no plans of forcing his way back into the team.

With the way things are going, the Blues could be forced to accept another loan deal for Lukaku with an option to buy.

This would be ideal for the Bianconeri, who don't have the funds to secure a permanent transfer at the current point of time.

They were hoping to offload Dusan Vlahovic for big money, but there have been no suitable offers for the Serbian striker.
