Belgian refuses to talk about a transfer away
Everton striker Romelu Lukaku has reiterated his desire to stay at Goodison Park despite being linked with a mega-money move away in the summer.
The Belgian international is enjoying yet another successful campaign, netting 25-goals in all competition for the Toffees, including a brace against former-employers Chelsea on Saturday in the FA Cup.
Due to his consistent performances and impressive goal-tally, Lukaku has been linked with a mega-money move away from Goodison Park, with Chelsea, Manchester United and Atletico Madrid all linked with launching summer offers.
However, the 22-year-old has discussed his future and has revealed his thoughts are only with Everton and only with improving himself rather than looking for a move away.
Lukaku Cools Transfer Talks
When asked about the speculation and his future, Lukaku said: “I don’t think about that.
“As a player, individually, I am doing my best. I have grown as a player, as a man, and as an individual. Technically I became stronger, faster, better and my performances are better.
“It is not like I play three games great and six games bad, I have always been good this year and this is something I wanted. If you look at all the big players in the league they do it from day one to the 38th game of the season and that is what I want to do.
“With every goal I score this year there is something happening. I just want the team to win. Whoever scores, whoever delivers, we are all happy. I want to be there for my team. Even if we lose I want to be the one who pulls the strings.
“I just think about Arsenal next week. I just want to win against them and then I go to the national team and play a big game against Portugal.
“I am happy to be having a good season and I just want to improve and do even better next year.”
