'Striking rumor in Italy: Inter must fear a coup from AC Milan.'

Romelu Lukaku has expressed multiple times his desire to stay at Internazionale. Inter, in turn, wants to retain the Chelsea loanee, but faces competition from an unexpected source. The Belgian striker is also rumored to be on AC Milan's radar, as they hope to soon welcome Marcus Thuram.

Milan is on the verge of cashing in on Sandro Tonali, who is heading to Newcastle United. There are talks of a sum of seventy million euros, which would significantly boost the Rossoneri's coffers. Sky Sport reports that Milan intends to use that amount to lure Thuram to the Italian fashion city.

The 25-year-old forward's contract with Borussia Mönchengladbach is expiring, making him available on a 'free' transfer. In order to secure his arrival, Thuram can expect a salary of five million euros per year and ten million euros in signing bonus. The French international may not be the only forward making a move to Milan this summer, as Gazzetta dello Sport also mentions the name of Lukaku.

From Inter to Milan The cover of the pink sports newspaper features a photo of Lukaku in Milan's shirt. Inter is keen on acquiring the Belgian striker from Chelsea but lacks the financial means to do so. A potential transfer has been discussed internally at Milan, according to reports. Lukaku previously turned down an offer from Al-Hilal, but a move to Inter's arch-rivals seems unlikely.
