DBasia.news – Romelu Lukaku did return to Inter Milan on loan, but Romero Lukaku’s weight is not ideal for competing in Serie A. But Romeru Lukaku has convinced himself he will play like he used to when he was at Inter Milan.
Lukaku left Inter almost a year ago after joining Chelsea. The Blues then redeemed him for around 115 million euros.
At that time, Lukaku was in his best form after presenting the Scudetto for Inter. He is confident of being able to make up for his failure in his first period at Chelsea.
But the reality is not as expected. Lukaku has struggled to get the best out of Chelsea.
Lukaku has openly admitted that he does not match the tactics used by Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel. He then insisted on returning to Inter.
This request has now been granted. Inter are willing to take him home on loan.
Interesting facts were revealed after Lukaku underwent medical tests. According to a report by La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Belgian striker is overweight than when he last played for Inter.
Inter responded to this quickly. The Nerazzurri require Lukaku to undergo a strict diet program and an additional training menu in order to return to his ideal weight as he was a year ago.
From the same report, Lukaku’s ideal weight at Inter is 101 kg. These conditions make it more agile to take advantage of counter-attack schemes.
But Lukaku’s weight gain at Chelsea is not without reason. He is indeed functioned as a bouncing wall for his teammates so he needs a more muscular body.
It’s interesting to see Lukaku’s performance when his weight is back to ideal. It is not impossible that this factor was the main cause of his failure during his career in England.
