Chelsea Transfer News Roundup Inter Milan have option to extend Romelu Lukaku loan deal Blues were engaged in summer talks to acquire RB Salzburg striker and more - September 18 2022

By Deepungsu Pandit Modified 18 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Chelsea manager Graham Potter will look to get the Blues back to the top. Chelsea's Premier League game against Liverpool this weekend has been postponed due to the demise of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. New manager Graham Potter will now make his league bow for the Blues against Crystal Palace on October 1. Meanwhile, acclaimed journalist Gianluca di Marzio has said that Inter Milan have the option to extend Romelu Lukaku's loan deal. Elsewhere, the Blues were engaged in negotiations to sign an RB Salzburg striker this summer. On that note, here's a look at the key Chelsea transfer stories as on September 18, 2022:

Inter Milan have option to extend Romelu Lukaku loan deal

Romelu Lukaku is expected to extend his stay at Inter Milan. Inter Milan have an option to extend Romelu Lukaku's loan deal, according to Gianluca di Marzio via Sempre Inter. The Belgian returned to the San Siro this summer on a temporary move after an unsuccessful second spell with Chelsea. The 29-year-old endured a turbulent 2021-22 campaign after switching to Stamford Bridge from the San Siro for a blockbuster fee last summer. Lukaku failed to live up to expectations, though, and was soon an isolated figure in the squad. He fell out of favour under former manager Thomas Tuchel in the later stages of last season. The Belgian ended the last campaign with 15 goals from 44 games across competitions, with Kai Havertz pipping him to the No. 9 position. The Belgian was desperate to resurrect his career with a move back to Serie A with his old club this summer. The Nerazzurri didn't have the finances to pull off a permanent deal, and a loan move emerged as the only viable option. The new Blues hierarchy sanctioned a deal after taking note of Lukaku's desire to leave. Lukaku initially joined on a one-year deal. However it now appears the Serie A giants have the option to add another year to the move for a €10 million fee. Lukaku has one goal from three games this season so far. The Blues are likely to sanction his extension should Inter approach with a proposal, although there's also talk of a permanent move.

Brighton man could be good addition to Graham Potter s roster says Fabrizio Romano

Moises Caicedo has admirers at Stamford Bridge. Acclaimed transfer expert Fabrizio Romano believes Moises Caicedo could be a fine addition to Graham Potter's roster. Chelsea reportedly have an eye on the Ecuadorian midfielder, who has been impressive for Brighton & Hove Albion recently.

"At the moment, there are no negotiations for Caicedo; we will see in the next months what happens. I think it’d be great for them to work together again; Caicedo is a brilliant player, but Brighton project deserves some respect, so I’m not sure they will be open to let Caicedo go already in January," wrote Romano. Caicedo has one goal from six appearances across competitions for the Seagulls this season. Poll : 0 votes Quick Links More from Sportskeeda Edited by Bhargav × Feedback Thank You!
