Chelsea are interested in signing Romelu Lukaku from Inter Milan this summer.

According to Daily Mail, Thomas Tuchel is hoping to put together a squad capable of winning the Premier League and has identified the need for a top-class goalscorer.

The 28-year-old has been in exceptional form for the Italian club this past season, helping them win the Scudetto after 11 years.

Lukaku scored 30 goals with 10 assists for Inter Milan, but the Italian outfit are under financial pressure to sell players during the summer transfer window.

The Belgian international failed to prove his quality during his previous spell at Stamford Bridge and will feel that he has some unfinished business at the club.

He left Chelsea in 2014 after making just 15 first-team appearances and failing to score a single goal in that time.

Chelsea splashed out on Timo Werner last summer, but the German forward has failed to live up to expectations.

The 25-year-old chipped in with 12 goals and 15 assists in all competitions for the Blues.

Chelsea need to sign a quality goalscorer this summer, and Lukaku is one of the best in the world right now.

His addition to the ranks would undoubtedly boost Chelsea’s hopes of challenging for the Premier League title next season.
