Transfer news: Romelu Lukaku may go on loan

Chelsea youngster Romelu Lukaku is open to making a temporary switch away from the club if it is beneficial for him and the Blues.

The Belgium international has been linked with Fulham and could make a temporary switch to Craven Cottage this season.

“I just want the best for myself and for the club,” he said.

“If I can stay here at Chelsea and be part of the starting XI and score a lot of goals for the club and make my team win, that’s good for me and for the club as well.

“If I go on loan on another team and score goals and make an impact, that will be good as well.

“I expect to be a Chelsea player for hopefully my career. I just need to work hard and continue to do what’s best for the team.”
