Lukaku can prove himself by rejoining Chelsea - Drogba

Romelu Lukaku has a point to prove that could
sway him towards swapping Everton for a return to
Chelsea, according to Didier Drogba.
Chelsea signed Lukaku from Anderlecht as an 18-
year-old in 2011, but he made just 10 Premier
League appearances – only one from the start –
with loan spells at West Brom and Everton proving
more fruitful.
The striker joined the Toffees permanently in July
2014, but has been linked with a return to his
former club having reportedly refused a contract
extension at Goodison Park.
Lukaku is top of the Premier League scoring charts
with 23 goals and Chelsea legend Drogba – who
claimed to know what the Belgian's future plans
are, but refused to reveal them – is sure he would
be a success if he found himself back at Stamford
Bridge.
"If he comes to Chelsea it will be great for the
club," Drogba – who this week joined United
Soccer League side Phoenix Rising as a player and
co-owner – told Sky Sports.

scored more Premier League goals than
Middlesbrough (22 goals) this season.

"He knows the house already and I think he wants
to prove he can be successful here, he didn't get
the chance to do it.
"Chelsea is his club since he was young, so why
not?
"He wants to be the best. He's really working hard
to become the best.
"I am always challenging him. When he scores one
goal, I expect him to score two. We have a very
good relationship.
"I think he's my little brother. He's a really good
guy. He's a very good player, but also a great
man."
Lukaku was named among the PFA Players' Player
of the Year Nominees on Wednesday.
