The Inter fan group have said that Romelu Lukaku, whom they once considered king, is now just one of many – but they will give him a second chance.
What was said about Romelu Lukaku?
Serie A fans say they still haven’t forgiven the Belgian for betraying the club as his return from the blues on loan approaches. The Belgian international left Inter last summer in a £100m deal, sacking the club for the Serie A title, with many of the club’s ultras outraged by the manner in which he left. However, his move to the PL failed and Romelu is set to return to Italy for the 2022-23 campaign.
While it would be a stretch to say the Belgian international is welcomed to Milan with open arms, Curva Nord Milano say they are ready to give the striker a second chance. A statement posted to IG stated that The Curva Nord supports Inter and will not oppose Romelu. No one should go to meet him with scarves or banners of whore; everything that will be done in the future in relation to Lukaku will have to be earned on the field with humility and sweat.
It was also said that Romelu Lukaku was supported and treated like a king, now he is just like many. They will never root against Romelu if he puts on the Inter jersey again. The statement says that they took note of Romelu’s betrayal and were very upset. For a football player, these things can be forgiven over time, but they remain.
A little about the topic
Signing the blue club record will come at just €8m in loan fees with the potential to earn more through performance-related add-ons. After the breakup between player and head coach Thomas Tuchel, Chelsea wanted to get the club’s high wages of £325,000 a week from his books. This is despite the fact that the Blues are actually paying Romelu to play for Inter, with annual transfer fees of €23m.
