Contrary to recent reports, Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku will not be leaving Stamford Bridge during the January transfer window.

The Belgian striker arrived in west London during the summer but has found first-team opportunities limited.

The 18-year-old had been linked with a loan move to Malaga or AC Milan in a bid to gain first-team experience however his agent has dismissed the rumours.

"His future is clear. He will not move in January, he will definitely stay in London," Roger Henrotay told Calciomercato.it.

"The rumours about Malaga and Stoke City? No, I repeat, Romelu will stay at Chelsea where he is very happy and he will not change jerseys.

"I'm sorry but there is no possibility of him moving to the Rossonerie," he added.
