Lukaku

The Belgian striker is finally back as he was in his first 2-year spell with Inter and now coach Inzaghi has less than two weeks to decide who he will choose between him and the Bosnian. In the final of the Champions League, one will be at the side of Lautaro Martinez.

The signals of the last few weeks were clear, the double against Empoli and Sassuolo, the goals scored in Rome and Napoli, two assists against Lazio, but it was the test against Atalanta that confirmed that Romelu Lukaku has returned to the decisive striker of the two years with Antonio Conte in bench

If Inter secured the participation in the Champions League a week before the end of the championship, Big Rom has indisputable merit. He has scored 7 goals in the last 6 weeks. He and Lautaro have led the team in the most difficult moment, after the loss on April 15 in 'San Siro' against Monza, when even Inzaghi's bench was shaking.

Since then, the Belgian has convinced more and more with his performances on the field. The double injury to his left thigh seems a distant memory.

Interestingly, Lukaku returned to form at the best moment, when the season gives its verdicts. His goals helped Inter qualify for the Champions League in both the round of 16 and the quarter-finals, but he was also decisive in the return derby (Martinez's 1-0 assist) and in the Coppa Italia semi-final against Juventus .

In 2023, the Chelsea-owned striker scored 12 goals, better than only Lautaro, 20 in total. "Welcome to Lula Park. Another victory, Inter power", Romelu wrote on Instagram.

The Belgian's form has increased the pressure on Dzeko, who is no longer sure of his place in the Champions League final. For City, Lukaku can have his chance from the first minute.
