Liverpool great Graeme Souness is backing Chelsea's move for Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku.

Souness has now given his approval of the Blues signing of Lukaku, who has previously played in the Premier League for four clubs including West Brom, Everton and Manchester United.

Souness wrote in The Times: “Romelu Lukaku may still have unfinished business at Chelsea, who sold him to Everton seven years ago. I am an enormous fan of him.

“I used to say he was the centre forward that Premier League centre halves would least like to play against because of his speed and strength.

“He appears to have a different focus to his game from going to Italy. Whether that is down to losing weight and a different training regime, I do not know, but he appears a more energised player.

“He has won the league in Italy at Inter Milan and everybody is raving about him there, so does he want to come back to England and show people the real Lukaku?"
