5 reasons why Romelu Lukaku should sign for Chelsea

#5 Competition in the national team

Lukaku has competition from the likes of Benteke, Origi and Batshuayi in the Belgium team

Visibility is an important factor when competing for a place in your national team. Even though many international managers claim to be keeping tabs on the developments in China, USA etc, it is more or less understood that a move to certain leagues damages your national team prospects.

With fellow Belgian internationals Christian Benteke, Divock Origi and Mitchy Batshuayi all featuring in the Premier League, Lukaku has the opportunity to clearly cement his superiority and hold down the first XI spot by staying in the Premier League and playing for one of the ‘big boys’. What's more, with fellow Belgian internationals Courtois, Hazard and Batshuayi at Stamford Bridge already, Lukaku would be very much at home in the Chelsea dressing room.
