According to FCInterNews, the Bosnian told Italian channel DAZN that the Belgian is in good physical shape and expressed the hope that he can demonstrate that on the field beginning with this evening's game against Napoli.

Following the World Cup, Lukaku spent the month of December trying to improve both his physical and match-day sharpness. Given how long the 29-year-old has been out injured, this has not been a simple feat. It is known that Lukaku has been exercising hard to try to get back into his peak shape. Dzeko believes that his strike partner has recovered well, and he is hoping that this will be apparent.

When questioned about Lukaku, the 36-year-old responded, "He's doing great physically. Let's hope he can prove it on the pitch, since we've missed him over the past six months”

Dzeko wants Lukaku find his best form

Romano: Boehly does not want Lukaku

According to Fabrizio Romano, negotiations with Romelu Lukaku have broken down between Chelsea and Inter Milan. Romano said on the House of Champions program that discussions between the two teams over what to do with the striker had stalled. Lukaku is currently uncertain. He departed Stamford Bridge in the summer to restart his career with the group he had just left a year earlier. With Inter, the 29-year-old probably produced some of his best football to date, leading them to their first Serie A championship in almost a decade. But in 2021, with atonement and unfinished business on his mind, he made the decision to trade the San Siro for South West London. In the end, redemption was not attained, and the forward took more unfinished business with him when he was loaned back to Italy.

Now that Lukaku has left Cobham to look for answers, more inquiries must be made regarding his long-term strategy. Will Inter choose to hire him on a long-term basis, or will Todd Boehly change his mind and cancel his deal with Roman Abramovich? Neither choice appears to be being addressed at the moment.

Chelsea boss does not want Lukaku to return

According to transfer guru Romano, there are currently no talks between teams since Inter wants to ensure that Lukaku is healthy and capable of making an impact for the remainder of the season before agreeing to speak with Chelsea. But undoubtedly, the player's goal is crystal clear: he wants to remain at Inter, as he expressed in public and as I have been informed in private. "I believe Chelsea is already considering a variety of strikers for the future." It's true that Lukaku has spoken his thoughts about staying with Chelsea—or not—clearly.
