The Blues striker could sit out the upcoming clash at home to Jurgen Klopp’s side after his controversial interview.
GOAL has learned that Thomas Tuchel is considering dropping Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea’s squad against Liverpool after the striker conducted a controversial interview behind the club’s back that was published this past week.
Tuchel will reveal his squad to the team tomorrow and the Belgian may not even be on the bench even after he was judged to be criticising his manager’s tactics.
It has since emerged that neither the club nor the player’s representatives knew of the interview beforehand. It appears to have arranged directly with the Sky Sport journalist in London.
