Chelsea have long planned their future without Romelu Lukaku, and the Londoners’ new manager, Mauricio Pochettino, has made sure to show him that he is not counting on him.
In an indirect but not very clear way, the coach of the “blues” tried to pressure the Belgian forward to find as soon as possible the club in which he will continue his career.
In his interview ahead of Chelsea’s away game against West Ham, the Argentine indicated that for his part, the London club have done everything they had to do regarding the Belgian’s case and that the ball is now in his court. player.
“The situation between the team and Romelu Lukaku was clear before I came here. For our part, we have done everything we had to do“, emphasized the 51-year-old coach.
“There is not just one side to these issues. There are two sides. They are two sides trying to find the best solution. You can’t put the burden on the team alone“, concluded the coach of the English team.
Given that Chelsea’s position on the Lukaku matter has become known to him, Pochettino’s specific statements can be interpreted as a call for the 30-year-old striker to find his next team.
