Chelsea are racing against time to complete the signing of Romelu Lukaku from Inter.
The Belgium international striker has been pictured leaving Milan by aeroplane, with London his destination after reportedly passing the first part of his medical with the club in Italy.
Chelsea will have to register Lukaku by 23:00 on Tuesday if the No.9 is to feature in Wednesday’s Super Cup showdown with Villarreal in Belfast, though the main concern for manager Thomas Tuchel will simply be getting the deal over the line in the first place.
Lukaku is set to become Chelsea’s record signing, with a €115 million (£97.5m) fee agreed with Inter.
