Serie A legend Antonio Cassano has slammed Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku for demanding a return to Inter Milan just a year after his move to Stamford Bridge.
The 29-year-old forward endured a miserable first season back in west London following his club-record move from the Nerazzurri, having scored just 15 times in 44 appearances.
According to The Telegraph , Lukaku is hoping to force a move away from Chelsea so he can return to Inter Milan, where he guided the Italian giants to their first Scudetto in a decade during the 2020/21 campaign.
However, former Inter striker Cassano is unsure how fans would react to the Belgian international's return to the club, as he told Bobo TV (as per The Evening Standard):
“I wouldn't take him back. He said he was going to his dream team, earning 15 million euros. Now, however, in London he doesn’t kick a ball and would like to return to Italy. Inter's problem, given that Dybala is coming, is that if they get Lukaku they have to sell Lautaro. Again, I would not sign Lukaku."
“Also because first of all you have to pay for him, but then you have to see the reaction of the fans: if he scores two goals per game, okay, but otherwise the situation becomes quite difficult. Lukaku has to think about it. At this point, I say he stays at Chelsea.”
