Chelsea are reportedly preparing to make a third offer to sign Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku, with the Blues willing to spend around £100m to land the Belgian.

Chelsea are reportedly preparing to make a third offer to sign Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku this summer.

The Blues recently had two bids for the 28-year-old rejected by the Serie A champions, with their latest offer worth around £85m plus left wing-back Marcos Alonso.

According to Sky Sports News, Chelsea are determined to re-sign Lukaku and they believe that a third offer between £94m and £102m could convince Inter to sell the striker.

Despite having already sold right-back Achraf Hakimi to Paris Saint-Germain, Inter are still looking to sell players in order to reduce their wage bill.

It is understood that Lukaku would welcome a return to Stamford Bridge but the Belgian will not look to force through a transfer.

Lukaku, who left Chelsea permanently in 2014 when he moved to Everton, has had two successful years at the San Siro, scoring 64 goals and providing 19 assists in 95 appearances across all competitions.
