Story of  Romelu Lukaku

Romelu's unusual passion for football impressed his father, so when Romelu was 5 years old, his father sent him to a local club called "Rupel Boom". Unsurprisingly, during his four years at the club, he far outclassed the other kids in the squad. And just during one of his games, he was spotted by a scout from another club "Lierse". Romelu scored 121 goals for "Lierse", an extraordinary performance.

Several of the club's players were brought in by "Anderlecht" following the relegation of "Lierse" from the "Belgian Pro League". Romelu was one of them, scoring 131 goals in 93 appearances for Anderlecht.

At the start of the 2013-2014 season, he returned to "Chelsea" and in 2013 he was loaned to "Everton" on a one-season contract. He would love to play for 'Everton' and when they received a five-year deal he couldn't turn it down.

In April 2017, he was included in the ‘Professional Footballers' Association Team of the Year,’ better known as the ‘PFA Team of the Year,’ and was a strong contender in the race to win the ‘PFA Player of the Year’ and the ‘PFA Young Player of the Year’ awards.

Jerseys Recommendation

Chelsea Home Jersey By Nike 2021/22

This home jersey combines "Lyon Blue" and "Opti Yellow", dominated by fresh royal blue, with yellow standing out against it. Chelsea's 2021-22 home jersey features a V-neck with "CFC" lettering on the collar. The garment has yellow stripes with the Swoosh logo on the sides.

Design-wise, the Chelsea 21-22 Home Shirt features an all-over print of abstract zig-zag and checkered patterns. The Nike and club logos are yellow, while the "three" logo is white. The design was inspired by an art form that could be described as an "optical illusion", where energy comes from pushing toward the unknown, but ultimately good in this life.

Inter Milan Home Jersey 2021/22 By Nike

The traditional Nerazzurri stripes make way for a complex snakeskin weave, while after 26 years the historic sponsor Pirelli will no longer be present, instead the Lenovo brand will be present on the back. Its brilliant design references the club's nickname Il Biscione (Big Grass Snake). The Nike Inter Milan 2021-2022 home jersey combines the main colors "blue spark" and "black" with the "real gold" logo. Although the redesign introduces a new colour palette, these are the same colours used for the 2020-21 season. 

Based on Nike's new template, the Inter 2021-2022 home shirt has a v-collar, which is black to match the style of the sleeve cuffs. Meanwhile, the Nike and Inter logos are gold. The text Inter Milano appears on the inside collar.
