Chelsea to make final Lukaku bid?

It seems as though Chelsea are growing tired of the elongated discussions surrounding a possible deal to bring Romelu Lukaku back to Stamford Bridge.

The Blues will table a final take-it-or-leave-it offer of £67million for the Belgian.

Everton want at least £75million, report The Times, but Chelsea can drive the price down due to the sell-on clause in the deal that took Lukaku to Goodison Park.

Fellaini to knock back Sunderland to stay with United

Marouane Fellaini will reject an approach from Sunderland because he wants to fight for his place at Manchester United, according to the Independent.

New Sunderland boss David Moyes wants a reunion with Fellaini in the North East but Fellaini is keen to prove his worth to Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford.

Adnan Januzaj, however, is likely to be allowed to leave United if Sunderland firm up their interest in the 21-year-old winger.

Januzaj thrived under Moyes during the Scot’s doomed 10-month spell in charge of United during the 2013-14 season, and could welcome the chance to link back up with him at the Stadium of Light.
