Chelsea are 'losing patience with Romelu Lukaku' with the departing striker unwilling to move to Saudi Arabia - despite £43m interest from Al-Hilal - and instead keen to stay in Europe

Chelsea are beginning to 'lose patience' with Romelu Lukaku, as the striker remains resistant to interest from Saudi Arabia.

Lukaku is currently training at Cobham after returning to the Blues following a year on loan at Inter Milan.

However, new boss Mauricio Pochettino all but confirmed he will not remain at the club past the summer after leaving him out of the Blues' pre-season tour of America.

The 30-year-old had been expected to rejoin Inter, but he is thought to be keener on joining Juventus.

Lukaku is said to have snubbed Simone Inzaghi's side after being benched for the Champions League final last season.
