Dzeko has failed to replace Lukaku

Edin Dzeko was transferred to Inter as a replacement for the star of this team, Romelu Lukaku, who was transferred to Chelsea for 113 million euros over the summer.

However, the Belgian at Chelsea has also failed to show his form as at Inter, as after his good start, his momentum has stopped.

Last season, the Nerazzurri played with a vertical counterattack system with Antonio Conte, with Lukaku having the opportunity to attack with his power in narrow lines shining as a striker. Things have changed since both left, both the Belgian and Conte, despite this being expected.

Inter have been slightly transformed under the orders of Simone Inzaghi while Dzeko’s role is not the same as Lukaku’s, but it was hoped that he would be a more frequent goal scorer if compared to his predecessor.

After 25 games in Serie A last season, Lukaku had scored 18 goals and made seven assists. This season, Dzeko has scored 10 goals and made three assists in the same period, a big drop.
