Chelsea reject Inter Milan's opening bid for Lukaku

Inter Milan have made an opening bid of €5m to loan Romelu Lukaku for a season, Fabrizio Romano reports.

However, Chelsea have rejected this offer. Previous reports stated that Chelsea have lowered their demands down to €12m which is still a bit too much for Inter.

That said, Inter are waiting to hear Chelsea's price tag in the formal talks that will continue this week.

Lukaku has been pushing for the move for a while. Thomas Tuchel has been reported to be in agreement.
