This season Romelu Lukaku, shining in the ranks of "Roma", contributed with a goal to the team's 4-0 victory against the "Brighton" team in the UEFA Europa League.
The 30-year-old Belgian is playing on loan basis in Italy this season and still belongs to London's "Chelsea" club. The striker has a contract with the "aristocrats" until the summer of 2026.
However, after Thursday's match, R. Lukaku openly stated that he would like to stay in Rome.
"Everything is different in Rome. The fans love me. I try to give everything I can because this club has helped me a lot.
What about the expiring loan this summer? I have to be careful with these answers.
I don't want to cause any controversies in England with my answers.
Have I learned from the past? Let me get away. I want to stay here", - indirectly sent a message to the "Chelsea" club R. Lukaku.
