Didier Drogba has confirmed Romelu Lukaku’s return to Stamford Bridge, saying that the striker is returning to his spiritual home.
The Belgium forward, 28, is expected to sign a deal with the Champions League winners, after the Premier League giants and his club Inter Milan agreed a £97.5million fee.
And Drogba, who has worked as a club ambassador at Stamford Bridge for sponsors Yokohama, has seemingly let the cat out of the bag before an announcement with a revealing tweet.
“He’s coming home @RomeluLukaku9@ChelseaFC,” Drogba wrote as a caption for a mock-up image of the centre forward in a Chelsea shirt.
According to reports, Lukaku will have a medical on Monday before inking a contract.
It has been claimed he has been offered a five-year contract worth £195,000-per-week.
Just a few days ago, Thiago Silva liked an Instagram post hinting at Romelu Lukaku’s move to Chelsea.
