It won’t be long before teams join the queue to sign Lukaku

The 23-year-old has had a stunning start to the new campaign, finding the back of the net on 6 occasions in his 8 appearances so far. Efficient in front of goal, Lukaku has converted an incredible 31% of chances that have come his way and could become the elite striker in England should he continue with the good work.

The striker found acres of space to work on the left-hand side of the pitch for his goal, but still had a lot to do with numerous Manchester City players closing down on him and he duly converted the opportunity by finding the far corner.

In the past, Everton’s season has often been undone by the lack of a prolific striker. However, that could change with Romelu Lukaku finding consistency and scoring goals to help his side climb up the league table.
