Eto'o gives his verdict on Lukaku to Inter & reveals how he'd stop racism in football

Legendary striker Samuel Eto’o has backed Romelu Lukaku to be a hit with Inter.

The Belgium international forward, who was a team-mate of Eto’o’s with Everton during the 2014-15 campaign, moved to the Serie A side from Manchester United for €80 million (£71m/$87m) in the summer.

His Old Trafford exit was followed by a chorus of criticism that suggested he had been a flop with the Red Devils, with whom he scored 28 Premier League goals in 66 outings.

The 26-year-old has hit the ground running in Italy, though, netting three times in his first six Serie A games to get back to the one-goal-in-two ratio that distinguished him in previous spells at Anderlecht, West Bromwich Albion and the Toffees.
