Chelsea Could Make January Call for loan striker Lukaku

Chelsea are currently left with Daniel Sturridge as the only striker option for Fernando Torres. Sturridge is injured leaving only Torres as the main striker playing all the games. The Blues could definitely seek for another striker option in January but could it be Falcao or Lukaku?

Lukaku

West Bromwich Albion manager Steve Clarke says he can not stop Chelsea from recalling loan striker Romelu Lukaku if they need him in January.

The Belgian international who joined the Baggies on loan from Chelsea, netted his first goal for the club in his debut against Liverpool. Which mark his first Premier League goal since his switch from Anderlecht in the 2011 summer break. Lukaku also scored the winning goal for West Brom against Reading during the weekend. With only Fernando Torres and Daniel Sturridge representing the attack, Roberto Di Matteo may be tempted to buy another striker or recall Lukaku in January to increase his options in the second half of the season. 

Clarke had admitted that he'll be incapable of stopping the club if they eventually need him. "If he scores 20 goals by Christmas and Chelsea want him back, there's not a lot I can do," 

The 19-year-old striker was largely overlooked during his first season at Chelsea under Andre Villas-Boas, with the striker left fuming with the Portuguese manager by the end of his tenure, while he refused to become involved in the celebrations after victories and he said 

"I will never forgive the previous coach what he did to me and took away," the Belgian international complains "Not only because I was not on the European list, but just how he spoke to me and treated me. We got to the final but I didn't earn it. I would have had difficulty accepting a medal. "I've not even touched the cup. I don't deserve it because I was not on the list. I don't touch anything I don't deserve. That's why I also didn't touch the FA Cup."
