Having signed Lukaku for £97.5million back in 2021, his move didn’t go down as well as first hoped and as a result, he was shipped out to Inter Milan and Roma on loan over the past two years.
23 goals in the league over a combined 57 games is by no means a poor tally and having won the Coppa Italia and finished runner-up with Inter in the Champions League last season, Lukaku is a player who has shown that he can do it all in Italy. But with just 36 league goals in his last 92 Premier League games, he has not lived up to his price tag as a goalscorer for the Blues by some margin – given that other scorers have cost less and produced more.
