Lukaku willing to commit long term-future to Toffees

Romelu Lukaku is set to stay at Everton and sign a new deal, according to the Mirror.

The Belgian is said to commit himself to the Goodison Park club, believing that the Blues can qualify for the Champions League under the guidance of new majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri.

Ronald Koeman and Moshiri had both made it clear that the club was unwilling to sell it’s best players, and Lukaku had been targeted by several top European clubs over recent months. Chelsea, Manchester United, AC Milan, Juventus, PSG and Arsenal have all registered their interest but it seems that the forward is set to stay on Merseyside.

The Toffee’s hierarchy slapped a £75million price tag on Lukaku’s head in an attempt to ward off interest from potential suitors and was said to tell the player there were no intentions to sell him during the summer transfer window.

Now, with the potential signing of compatriot Axel Witsel and others such as Juan Mata and Morgan Schneiderlin, Lukaku has seemingly decided he would stay on Merseyside.
