Lukaku expresses his excitement at the prospect of playing in the Bundesliga.
Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku has said that a move to German giants Borussia Dortmund would greatly interest him.
Lukaku has spent the 2012/13 season on-loan at West Bromwich Albion and although he will now return to Stamford Bridge, his chances will be limited as Fernando Torres and Demba Ba remain above him in the pecking order.
With talk of superstars Radamel Falcao, Stevan Jovetic or Mario Gomez also joining the Blues it seems the young Belgian may still struggle for first team football, despite an impressive season with the Baggies.
Lukaku proved his credentials at the Hawthorns by scoring 17 goals in 35 Premier League appearances and with Chelsea likely to offload the 20-year-old again next season a host of clubs are keeping tabs.
Both Swansea and West Ham are likely to lead the chase in the Premier League for a loan deal for the Belgium international, but the forward has expressed his desire to go to the Bundesliga.
“I’ll start the season with Chelsea. Then I will speak with the management to discuss the best choice. I am a realist,” Lukaku was quoted on talkSPORT.
“Dortmund would be a good choice, especially as this club can still win the Champions League.”
The German club could be a great choice for the Chelsea starlet as under manager Jurgen Klopp Dortmund have built themselves into a strong European force.
With striker Robert Lewandowski linked with a move away from the Westfalenstadion Lukaku would enjoy more first team football in Germany that he would at Stamford Bridge.
