Desperate Chelsea open to Lukaku loan, Roma in the wings

Currently under contract at Stamford Bridge until 2026, having returned after spending last season on loan at Inter Milan, Romelu Lukaku has been causing Chelsea all kinds of headaches.
This summer, permanent moves for the striker have fallen through with not only the 'Nerazzuri' but also rivals Juventus, after the Belgian himself decided against the deal.
Now the Blues, having previously not been open to a loan move for the 30-year-old, are now reportedly considering it as an option, provided it comes with an compulsory purchase clause.
Teams from the Saudi Pro League have made enquiries about his situation, but they prefer a permanent transfer.
According to the latest reports from 'The Telegraph', Roma are in talks with the Blues over a loan deal for the striker, following his decision against the 'Bianconeri'
Chelsea and manager Mauricio Pochettino respect Lukaku and have a good relationship with him, but all parties agree that a departure - rather than a reinstatement - is the best solution.
