Romelu Lukaku started his second stint at Inter Milan with a bang by scoring a brilliant header two minutes into the 2-1 win at promoted Lecce.
LECCE, Italy: Romelu Lukaku made a dream start to his return to Inter Milan on Saturday after scoring less than two minutes into the Serie A club’s season opener at Lecce.Belgium forward Lukaku nodded home from close range with just 81 seconds gone to give Inter the lead at the Stadio Via del mare as they begin their bid to reclaim the Scudetto from local rivals AC Milan, 4-2 winners over Udinese earlier on Saturday.The 29-year-old had the easiest task to open his account for the campaign after Matteo Darmian knocked Federico Dimarco’s cross straight into his path.Lukaku reportedly took a pay cut to 8.5 million euros for the coming campaign to get out of Chelsea.He performed poorly in England and enraged Chelsea fans by saying in an interview with Sky Sport Italia that he wanted to return to Inter, where he won the Serie A title in 2021 and scored 64 times in 95 games over two years.That move came sooner than expected, with Inter paying an initial eight million euros plus a potential three million in bonuses for the loan.Italian media report that Inter and Chelsea have a gentleman’s agreement that the loan could be extended for another season should the move work out.After the deal was done his lawyer Sebastien Ledure said that “anything can happen” between now and the end of next season.
Of all the mistakes Manchester United have made in the transfer market since Sir Alex Ferguson retired nine years ago, few dealings have tended to elicit as much regret internally as the summers of 2014 and 2015 when the club placed their faith squarely in their straight-talking Dutch manager and paid a heavy price.
In the 48 hours prior to departure for Seattle, Manchester United had to request three new boarding passes for their 2015 pre-season tour.
Lautaro Martinez earned Inter Milan a 3-1 win at Cagliari on Sunday, a victory that ensured the Serie A title race will go to the final weekend for the first time since 2008. With leaders AC Milan having beaten Atalanta 2-0 at the San Siro earlier on Sunday, Inter had to win in Sardinia to keep the title race alive, edging in front in the 25th minute through Matteo Darmian. Martinez added a second six minutes after the break for Inter and they appeared on course for a comfortable ninth win in 10 matches in all competitions, before Charalampos Lykogiannis arrowed in a strike out of nowhere to get Cagliari back in it.
AC Milan are one win away from securing their 19th Serie A title after they defeated Atalanta at the San Siro.
