# Mino Raiola: Everton have promised to let Lukaku leave

Mino Raiola, the agent of Everton striker Romelu Lukaku, says that the Blues have promised his client a move away this summer if “certain clubs” make a bid.

Speaking to [talkSPORT](https://talksport.com/football/if-certain-clubs-come-he-could-leave-mino-raiola-tells-talksport-romelu-lukaku-could-depart), Raiola said:

> Lukaku had a promise that if certain clubs came this summer that he could leave. We are not in concrete talks with anybody at this moment, but hearing the market I think some clubs will contact Everton. If the price is right for Everton and the project is right for Lukaku then I think he will want to make another step, but we are not there yet.

There is a lot of talk that Lukaku’s former club Chelsea are keen to re-sign the Belgian striker and it is unclear if they are one of the clubs who Raiola spoke of.

The 24-year-old was in great form for the Blues last season and even if they get a huge fee for him, replacing his goals will not be easy for Ronald Koeman and Steve Walsh.
