Juventus chiefs are flying to London this week to seal a loan deal for Chelsea forward Romelu Lukaku.

Calciomercato report that director Cristiano Giuntoli will leave the Old Lady's pre-season tour of the United States to meet the Blues hierarchy.

Negotiations are expected to run smoothly with all parties eager to reach a swift agreement.

Lukaku spent last season on loan at Juve's fierce rivals Inter Milan, where he scored 14 goals in all competitions.

He remains under contract at Stamford Bridge until 2026 and with his Turin suitors suffering financial difficulties, a permanent move is out of the question.

Once the Belgian forward, 30, agrees terms with the Bianconeri, the Serie A giants will switch attention to offloading Dusan Vlahovic.

Juve are eager to raise funds this summer, having failed to qualify for next season's Champions League.

Paris Saint-Germain lead the race for the Serbian forward.
