Everton striker Romelu Lukaku is impossible to replace, says Tony Bellew... but the teams are at a 'very similar level' ahead of derby

Diehard Evertonian Tony Bellew admits that Romelu Lukaku would be impossible to replace should the striker leave Goodison Park.

Lukaku recently said he would not be accepting Everton's contract offer - sparking speculation that the striker would leave the club this summer.

And Bellew, who recently defeated David Haye in a heavyweight fight on points, believes the Belgian, who has 21 league goals so far this campaign, is irreplaceable.
