Chelsea forward Romelu Lukaku said on Tuesday he was “sorry” after saying he was “not happy” at the club under manager Thomas Tuchel.

Tuchel then dropped Lukaku, 28, who has suffered from injury and Covid-19 this season, for Sunday’s draw with Liverpool.

“To the fans I’m sorry for the upset that I’ve caused,” Lukaku told Chelsea’s website. “Obviously, it’s up to me now to restore your trust, and I’ll do my best every day to show commitment on the training ground and in games to make sure we win games. And also to the manager, my teammates and the board, I apologise, because I think it was not the right moment, also. And I want to move forward from this and make sure that we start winning football games and make sure that I start performing for the team in the best manner,” he added.
Chelsea paid £98 million for the ex-Manchester United attacker, who spent three seasons at Stamford Bridge earlier in his career. Lukaku had told the Italian broadcaster he wanted to return to Inter Milan. “I should’ve been clearer. That interview was about saying goodbye to Inter fans,” he said.
