Chelseaโ€™s asking price for Romaโ€™s Romelu Lukaku could increase in the summer

Chelseaโ€™s asking price of Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku could increase next summer, depending on how the player performs.

Lukaku joined Roma on a loan deal last summer after Inter failed to land the Belgian on a permanent basis. Already, Lukaku has made a fair amount of impact with his goals, scoring six times in the Serie A and three times in the Europa League.

Il Tempo (via TMW) today have reported about the situation of the 30-year-old, stating that Roma want to somehow sign the player on a permanent basis in the summer and they would try to attempt that move. But if Lukaku keeps performing the way he has, it may not help the Giallorossiโ€™s case.

That is because Chelsea would increase their asking for the ex-Manchester United man. On top of that, Roma would also have to find a solution regarding the playerโ€™s wages and these issues will be addressed over time. As of now, Lukaku is increasingly at the centre of the clubโ€™s project.
