‘The way the club is going fits my ambitions perfectly and just coming off winning Serie A.
“This opportunity comes at the right time and we can have a lot of success together,’ Lukaku said.
Africa Daily News, New York recalls that the Belgian striker was signed by Chelsea in 2011 from Anderlecht, but he made just a handful of appearances.
He was sent out on loan to West Brom and then Everton, who eventually signed him on a permanent basis.
Lukaku joined Manchester United, before Ole Gunnar Solskjaer offloaded him to Inter, where he helped them win the Serie A title last term, scoring 30 goals.
