Manchester United were shocked by the news about Romelu Lukaku’s exit plan after his agent’s revelation.
Federico Pastorello, Lukaku’s agent has said the striker is currently only focused on United’s push to secure a top-four finish this season, but he hasn’t ruled out the player moving away from Old Trafford:
“At the moment he is very focused on finishing the season. The competition for third and fourth place in England is very tight so let’s see what will happen in the future at the end of the season.”
“It’s his second season here and he will still have three years on his contract until the end. Let’s see. He’s someone who loves to know a different culture, a different football…”
“He likes Italy. When he was a child he followed a lot the Italian league. Everybody agrees today the Premier League is the best but years ago Italy was the best and they were the dreams for the younger footballer players.”
“Teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona, of course, attract any champion so he sees also in La Liga one day. Bundesliga for sure is a very good championship.”
However, his exit plan was not received well with Manchester United fans as they took it to social media to hurl insults at the Belgian striker.
