Romelu Lukaku will reunite with Jose Mourinho at Roma after Chelsea accepted a £5 million ($6m) loan offer from the Italian side.
. The Belgian striker has accepted a wage cut so that Chelsea will not have to cover any part of the £6m salary he will earn in Rome.
It was beginning to look like Lukaku would remain at Chelsea this season after he rejected moves to Inter, Juventus and Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal. Chelsea were desperate to sell the 30-year-old, but now at least they won't have him on the wage bill for the rest of the season.
