Chelsea turn down Napoli's loan offer with £25m obligation for Romelu Lukaku, insisting on £34m deal as negotiations continue.

Chelsea have rejected Napoli's offer to take Romelu Lukaku on loan with a £25 million obligation to buy, as the London club holds out for a £34 million deal. This move signals Chelsea's confidence in Lukaku’s value and their determination to get the price they want.

Napoli's offer was seen as a compromise, allowing them to sign the Belgian striker without committing to a large upfront fee. However, Chelsea's rejection suggests they believe Lukaku is worth the higher price tag.

With this development, the negotiations between Chelsea and Napoli will continue. Will the Italian club meet Chelsea's asking price, or will they explore alternative options? The transfer saga surrounding Lukaku’s future continues, with Chelsea firmly in the driver's seat.
