Lukaku Apology Divides Inter Fans

A few months into his tenure with the team, Lukaku gave an interview to Sky Sports Italia in which he expressed his love for Inter

Romelu Lukaku’s comeback exposed the disparities in attitudes among fans toward the Belgian, with some reluctant to accept his repentance.

Only a year after moving to West London for €113m, the 29-year-old Belgian striker returned to the Nerazzurri in the summer on loan from Chelsea.

A few months into his tenure with the team, Lukaku gave an interview to Sky Sports Italia in which he expressed his love for Inter and desire to one day return. This interview complicated Lukaku’s year with the Blues.

Lukaku had his first appearance for Inter in nearly two months last night, entering the game in the 83rd minute.

Lukaku moved towards the crowd after scoring the game’s final goal, placing a hand over his heart and raising the other to offer his apologies.
