Chelsea FC make improved £20m offer for Romelu Lukaku - report

Romelu Lukaku (credit: Wikipedia)
Chelsea have reportedly make an improved £20million offer for Anderlecht striker Romelu Lukaku.

The 18-year-old has been on Chelsea's radar for some time, with the Blues recently failing with an £18m offer for the teenager.

Arsenal and Tottenham have also shown interest in the teenager, who has one several occasions stated that he wants to move to Stamford Bridge.

And that wish could come true as according to the Daily Mail, the west London club have lodged an improved £20m bid for the Belgium international.

Anderlecht have already lined up Liverpool forward Milan Jovanovic as a replacement, with only personal terms left to be resolved before the 30-year-old can move to the club.

Anderlecht’s director of football, Herman van Holsbeeck, had earlier this month admitted Chelsea were chasing his prize asset, and revealed: "We will only sell him if it is good for both ourselves and the player.

"We are asking serious money for him."
