CHELSEA loanee Romelu Lukaku has hinted at a stunning transfer that will happen “much sooner than people think”.

Lukaku, 31, returned to Stamford Bridge three years ago following a record £97.5m deal from Inter Milan, but quickly fell out of favor and was loaned back to the San Siro just a year later.

The striker’s future with the Blues is uncertain after returning from his latest loan spell at Roma.

But the Belgian international is convinced that one day he will return to Anderlecht.

And the former Manchester United star insists a return is not far away as he misses his family in Belgium.

Lukaku said RTL Sports: “Of course. That’s [a return to Anderlecht] will happen. This will happen, I think, much sooner than people think.

The interviewer asked back, “Much earlier?”

Lukaku replied: “Yes. I left Belgium when I was 18.”

The center forward was asked again: “Do you miss it? Do you miss Belgium?”

Lukaku replied: “My mother, my children…”

The Belgian star joined Anderlecht in 2006, when he was 13, and spent three years in the youth squad.

The former Everton star made his senior debut in 2009 and scored a total of 41 goals and 17 assists in 98 appearances.
