Since Romelu Lukaku left Manchester United for Inter Milan last summer, he looks like a different animal inside the opposition box. Lukaku's overwhelming stats in Serie A 2019-20 are the reasons why he is considered as one of the deadliest strikers in the world at the moment.

There was never a doubt over his physical strength or work-rate or shooting accuracy during his time at Manchester United, but his first touch on the ball was something for what he got a lot of stick both from fans and reputed football pundits.

Since joining Conte's side, it seems like he has worked hard on his first touch, and the result is in front of us. In the 2019-20 Serie A season, Lukaku has racked up 16 goals and provided two assists.

The top-scorer for Inter and the third highest in Serie A 2019-20 campaign behind Ciro Immobile (25) and Cristiano Ronaldo (19), Lukaku has won 2.9 aerial battles on average and has recorded three shots per game this season.

When AC Milan hosted Inter earlier this season, Lukaku's name was on the scoresheet. On Sunday, Lautaro Martinez would probably be his partner in crime. Now, it remains to be seen how the duo runs the frontline for the hosts.
