Romelu Lukaku has been left out of Chelsea’s side to face Liverpool Sunday evening in an English Premier League game of huge ramifications reports Prime Business Africa.
The breaking news from the Stamford Bridge indicate that the striker who granted an interview to Sky Italia which was not approved by his London team has not made the squad for today’s match despite being 11 points adrift of leaders Manchester City.
Lukaku last played for Serie A champions Inter Milan but has bizarrely spoken of his frustrations since a £97.5million summer transfer.
Manager Tuchel reacted to the interview on Friday and registered his disappointment.
“We don’t like it, of course, because it brings noise that we don’t need and is not helpful,” said Tuchel.
Meanwhile Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp will not be on the sidelines this evening (Sunday) as he had tested positive for Covid-19.
