Transfers: Romelu Lukaku departs Chelsea for Roma in loan deal, Manchester City close in on Matheus Nunes

Chelsea's Belgium striker Romelu Lukaku has joined Roma on a season-long loan.

The loan fee was not disclosed but Italian media valued the deal at €8 million, including bonuses.

The 30-year-old will be reunited with Roma manager Jose Mourinho, who worked with him at Chelsea and Manchester United.
