Manchester United star praises Romelu Lukaku. Romelu Lukaku has received high praise from Victor Lindelof, a previous teammate at Manchester United. On Friday, March 24, the two square off when Belgium hosts Sweden in an eliminator for Euro 2024.
In the 2017 summer transfer window, Manchester United won the contracts of Lindelof and Lukaku by outbidding some fierce competitors. The defender has remained at Old Trafford while Lukaku left for Inter Milan and subsequently moved to Chelsea.
Prior to the match on Friday, Lindelof claimed that Lukaku is a clever player who makes good use of his physique. He said: “He is a very good player. It is a physical description first and foremost. He is incredibly powerful and skilled at using his physique effectively. When he dives deep, he is also swift. It’s crucial for us to be wise protectors and resist allowing him to hold you down and manipulate you.”
“You need to be clever and perhaps let him initiate contact, but after that, be present and don’t give him too much time. He’s a very powerful player, so it’s crucial to keep him out of the box as much as you can.”
Romelu Lukaku’s destiny is up in the air this summer because talks between Chelsea and Inter Milan have not yet taken place. According to reports, the Serie A team is not interested in keeping the forward, and the Blues are now equally convinced that they will keep the attacker for next season.
Giuseppe Marotta, CEO of Inter Milan, had previously made a suggestion that he was optimistic about the forward’s ability to regain his form: “We know that Romelu adores Inter; he loves the club. We sense that. He is driven to accomplish great things and is making every effort to get back into shape as quickly as possible.”
Aldo Serena believes that Lukaku will make the ideal substitute for Victor Osimhen at Napoli, despite the fact that Inter and Chelsea are still undecided about the Belgian. He tweeted: “I’d ask Spalletti if he’d be interested in replacing Osimhen with Lukaku if I were Spalletti and I couldn’t turn down a massive offer from an English team. It might be the ideal setting for him to relaunch himself if Inter decided not to retain him.”
Osimhen has been connected to a transfer due to interest from Manchester United and Chelsea.
