Chelsea have reportedly been dealt a blow as they consider an approach for Inter Milan forward Romelu Lukaku.
The Blues, who won the Champions League in May, have the financial firepower to sign one of European football's top strikers during the summer transfer window.
While Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland appears to be their priority target, there has been talk of a potential reunion with Lukaku.
However, according to Tuttosport, Inter have no intention of parting ways with their most prized asset unless they receive a bid of £102.5m.
Despite their well-documented financial issues, it has been widely claimed that the Serie A champions view the Belgium international as untouchable with regards to an exit.
Lukaku, who has spent a large period of his career in the Premier League, has previously said that he wishes to remain at San Siro.
