Last week, we covered a claim from Italy stating that Chelsea’s Romelu Lukaku had already accepted an offer from Saudi Arabia for next season.

Now, we have Gazzetta dello Sport giving us details of an offer the Belgian striker will be receiving to lure him away from Europe to play in the same league as the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Karim Benzema.

The newspaper recall that the Chelsea forward’s father revealed that he would have moved to Saudi Arabia were he in Lukaku’s shoes, but also understood that with two children, uprooting a family wasn’t always easy.

However, 2024 could be different, because Gazzetta point out the offer for the striker is ‘no less than €30m per season for two years’.

That’s described as a ‘mind-boggling’ figure for him to consider, which would arrive after the 2024 Euros, where the Chelsea man will be hoping to ‘leave his mark’.

Still, there could also be an option for him to remain in Europe, as he has continued to produce the goods while on loan at AS Roma this season, with 12 goals in 19 games in all competitions.

Therefore, ‘the crossroad approaches’ for the Chelsea outcast, who could end up ‘choosing gold’ this time around.
