Player who Chelsea have loaned out has now scored in 13 consecutive Europa League matches
Romelu Lukaku, a Chelsea loanee, continued last night his romance with the Europa League.
Roma defeated Servette 4-0 at home on Thursday night in the group stages of the Europa League, with Romelu Lukaku scoring the game’s first goal.
Remarkably, this now means the Belgian striker has scored in 13 consecutive appearances in the Europa League.
Some may doubt him when it comes to scoring goals on the biggest stages, but his record in Europe’s secondary cup competition speaks for itself.
Even though he is now 30 years old, Lukaku is still listed on Chelsea’s roster through the 2026 summer season.
The center-forward went back to Italy this year to join Jose Mourinho’s Roma on another season-long loan.
With five goals in seven games this season in all competitions, he’s swiftly making his mark in Rome.
The Europa League expert is the ideal tool at the disposal of the Italian powerhouses if they want to win a European trophy this season.
Lukaku’s ludicrous run in the competition began during the 2014–15 season with Everton. With Inter Milan in the 2019–20 campaign, he had his next taste of the Europa League. He has now won both of his games against Roma this year, extending this streak.
