Lukaku: I Made A Mistake Saying I Only Wanted Chelsea

Anderlecht striker Romelu Lukaku has backtracked on claims he will only move to the Premiership this summer.

The talented 18-year old is thought to favour a move to Chelsea, with the West London side locked in negotiations with the Belgian outfit over the sale of Lukaku. However, Chelsea refuse to meet Anderlecht’s valuation of the striker with rumours suggesting talks have broken down.

Arsenal have also been linked with a move and the powerful forward has told Belgian TV show Extra Time that he has no preference to which club league he joins next year, as long as they are a big club in Europe.

“The negotiations with Chelsea are always ongoing but perhaps I have made a mistake with some of my words in the media when I’ve talked about only wanting to play for Chelsea,” Lukaku said.

“Actually my dream is to play for a top club European and I do not care whether they are from England, Spain, Italy or Germany.”
