Chelsea boss has his say over £75million Lukaku rumours
Romelu Lukaku: Conte refuses to discuss possible interest
Conte, who admitted his uncertainty if Diego Costa would remain at Chelsea this season, was asked about the Blues’ striker hunt and whether a deal for Lukaku was in the offing.
It was claimed last week that the Belgium striker had made a return to Stamford Bridge his No 1 priority this summer, but Conte, when asked directly about the player, refused to comment on suggestions a deal was imminent.
“I do not want to speak about the players of other teams,” said Conte.
“This is not respectful to the club or to their players. I prefer not to speak.
“The transfer market is not the most important thing. The important thing is to build a team – a team that plays in good and bad situations and concentrates and works together.”
Lukaku was sold by Chelsea in 2014 for £28million and it was claimed that the Toffees would only consider selling their star man if a side matched their £75million valuation.
