The two parties have agreed to a five-year contract, with an option for another year of extension. According to previous media reports, Manchester United offered a transfer fee of 75 million pounds plus an additional 15 million pounds in variables in order to sign Lukaku. 24-year-old Lukaku will join Manchester United in Los Angeles, and Mourinho welcomed his arrival: “Lukaku fits perfectly into Manchester United’s system; he has an excellent character and is a great player. It’s only natural that he wants to continue his career at the biggest club in the world.” He is an excellent addition to the team, and I know the team welcomes him as well. I am very looking forward to working with him again. ” Lukaku is also very excited about finalizing the deal: “First of all, I want to thank Everton and its fans; I’ve had four perfect seasons there.” I made some special friends and shared many unforgettable moments.

You can see the effort, determination, and spirit of this team in the UEFA League Cup final; I hope to become one of them. I can’t wait to step into Old Trafford and face 75,000 fans, but first I’ll work hard in the pre-season matches, looking forward to my first training session. ” Lukaku has managed to score 20+ goals in each of the past three seasons; last season he scored 25 goals in the league, finishing as the second-top scorer, just behind Kane. This summer, he rejected the chance to return to Chelsea and chose to join Manchester United.
