Romelu Lukalu Close to Joining Manchester United As Everton Agrees On £75 Million Fee

Belgium international and Everton forward Romelu Lukaku stood the chance to joining Manchester United as Everton agreed on a £75 million fee for the forward release.

The deal which is near completion will see the 24-year-old Belgian joined United at Old Trafford by next season.

Lukalu on his part, has not agreed on a deal with United, but José Mourinho is keened to having a deal agreed on and finalised with the Everton striker.

Chelsea's boss Antonio Conte has also shown interest in the striker and hope the ace would return to his former club, but United's José Mourinho remained keen to getting the Belgian over to Old Trafford as Zlatan Ibrahimovic injury persists.

As expectations are high on the United side, the Everton's striker is expected to join the club on their tour of the United States having complete medical.
