Chelsea owner Todd Boehly will reportedly speak with Thomas Tuchel on either Wednesday or Thursday of this week to verify Romelu Lukaku's temporary departure from Stamford Bridge.
Lukaku has been strongly linked with a return to Italy after struggling to cement a regular place in the Chelsea XI following his club-record £97.5million transfer to Chelsea last summer.
The 29-year-old striker has four years left on his contract at Stamford Bridge but he has made it clear he would be interested in returning to Serie A to play for his former side Inter Milan.
