Lukaku bound for Inter on £72m deal - sources
Romelu Lukaku is on the verge of leaving Manchester United for Inter Milan in a £72 million deal, sources have told ESPN FC.
Lukaku had been in Belgium since Monday and travelled to Milan on Wednesday evening to undergo a medical and seal the move. Lukaku's agent, Federico Pastorello, played a key role in brokering the agreement that is set to see the striker's two-year stay at Old Trafford come to an end.
Inter submitted a fresh offer -- made up of £60m in up front payments and another £12m in add-ons -- after day of talks in London on Wednesday.
Pastorello posted a photo on social media of him and Lukaku on a plane that said "Ready to take off .... direction Milano!"
