Football rumours: Saudi clubs among number of sides interested in Romelu Lukaku

What the papers say

Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku, who has spent the last season on loan at Roma, has attracted interest from AC Milan, Napoli and Fenerbahce, but has left the door open for a potential move to the Saudi Pro League, according to the Telegraph. The 31-year-old scored 13 goals in Serie A last season.

The Times says Napoli would only make a move for Lukaku if they sell their Nigeria striker Victor Osimhen, who scored 15 goals in 25 league games for the side last season.

Chelsea have joined the race for Crystal Palace star Michael Olise and made the 22-year-old one of their top transfer targets, according to the Standard. Manchester United are also interested in the France Under-21s winger, who is worth around £60million.
