Why we brought Lukaku back to Chelsea - Club's director, Marina Granovskaia

 

Chelsea director, Marina Granovskaia, has given reasons why the club brings Romelu Lukaku back to Stamford Bridge.

Granovskaia said Chelsea re-signed Lukaku because the player will play a big role in achieving their targets this season.

Chelsea on Thursday officially unveiled Lukaku, their former player, as their latest signing.

The UEFA Super Cup winners agreed a £97.5m fee with Inter Milan for the Belgian striker.

"Romelu Lukaku is quite simply one of the world's best strikers and goalscorers. We are absolutely delighted to be bringing him back to the club he loves, and are excited to be adding his talent to our Champions League-winning squad," Granovskaia was quoted by Chelsea's official website as saying.

"We are of course looking to build on last season's success, and Lukaku will play a big role in achieving our targets. I'm sure all Chelsea fans will join me in saying welcome home, Romelu!'
