The Belgian attacker will certainly not be able to remember the time spent in Manchester. He spent two years on Old Trafford, and the events of the last season determined his departure. Now he's gonna play Inter.
After joining Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's club, Lukaku's position in the team dropped sharply. He was no longer a basic player, and the coach preferred to bet on Marcus Rashford. When it was announced that Solskjaer had signed a contract until 2022, the Belgian knew he had to find himself a new employer. He didn't have a chance to perform regularly on Old Trafford. The fact that they no longer see a place for him in Manchester is evidenced by the fact that the Management Board has decided to reduce the amount of the 26-year-old's redundancy payment. Two years ago they signed an agreement with him under which Lukaku could leave the "Red Devils" for £75 million. Now they're ready to sell their attacker for 62 million.
He chose Inter, which, thanks to Antonio Conte, is currently undergoing a personnel revolution. The Italian trainer wants to base his team's attack line on Lukaku. According to the Italian media, the Belgian has agreed to the terms of the contract offered to him and the transfer is on the last straight. The Belgian national team's striker will earn £6. 6 million a year until 2024.
Lukaku has been sending a clear signal for the past few days that he will soon introduce himself to the fans of San Siro. He mentioned that Serie A is his favorite league. He also stated that "Antonio Conte is the best manager in the world and it is good to see him in the Inter". The support of a Belgian sniper will certainly come in handy in the Champions League. This time the end of the group stage is not an option.
