Romelu Lukaku has pledged to maintain the club’s current success, confirming that he is a “more mature” player than he was during his previous time at Stamford Bridge.

_”Maturity, maturity has been important. I think I’ve learnt much more about myself, you know, setting higher standards for myself as a player. I think, you know, you just it’s more becoming more complete, I think, because the game in Italy is much more different. It’s much more tied to spaces, is very more technical and tactical, which helped me a lot. .” _

The Belgian’s recent goal-scoring record at Inter speaks for itself. During the 2020/21 season, he scored 30 goals and added 10 assists in 44 games across all competitions.
