Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku has been linked with a move to Serie A outfit Roma this current summer transfer window.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport as reported by Football Italia, Roma CEO and General Manager Lina Souloukou flew to London to negotiate with Chelsea for the 30 year old.
Lukaku has also been linked to Serie A giants Juventus this window. He has reportedly turned down a move to the Saudi Pro League.
Roma are said to be keen on securing a loan deal or the big Belgian instead of a transfer outright. The Jose Mourinho led side were initially closing in alone a deal for Atalanta’s Duvan Zapata but the Colombian is unsure of a transfer move.
