Anderlecht claim surfaces over Lukaku

A new transfer claim has emerged over the future of Romelu Lukaku, whom Fenerbahce signed from Napoli earlier this season. The 33-year-old Belgian striker has yet to show the expected form at the club, and his former club Anderlecht is reportedly keeping a close eye on him.

According to a report in the Italian press, the Belgian club is assessing Lukaku's contract situation with Fenerbahce. The claims also suggest that Anderlecht management is considering signing the experienced goalscorer without paying a transfer fee.

Lukaku started his career in the Anderlecht youth system and drew the attention of major European clubs with his performances there. This has fueled speculation that he could return to Belgium.

The report states that Anderlecht may attempt a transfer if the player's contract expires. The club is reportedly waiting for suitable conditions in the summer 2027 transfer window.

For now, there is no official statement confirming any agreement between the parties. Lukaku's future at Fenerbahce and Anderlecht's alleged interest may become clearer as new developments emerge.
