Report – Juventus interested in Romelu Lukaku deal

Juventus are reportedly interested in signing Manchester United forward Romelu Lukaku.

Lukaku was not involved in United’s 5-1 win over Cardiff City in the Premier League on Saturday, with the striker on compassionate leave.

The Belgium international scored 27 times in all competitions for the Red Devils last season, but has managed just six goals in 22 appearances for the club this term.

According to Calciomercato, Juventus are interested in signing Lukaku, with the Italian champions viewing the 25-year-old as a player capable of leading their line for a long time.

Earlier this season, Lukaku, who has been criticised for some below-par performances this season, revealed that he would be open to a future move to Serie A.
