Manchester United finally agree deal for Romelu Lukaku replacement

At long-last, Manchester United fans can breathe a sigh of relief. It would seem they have finally replaced Romelu Lukaku…

When Romelu Lukaku left Manchester United to join Inter Milan, there was plenty of speculation over who would fill his boots at Old Trafford. However, to this day, nobody has brought in that could fill the striker’s position, so it has been left to Marcus Rashford.

Don’t get me wrong, as a neutral fan, I like Marcus Rashford. I obviously applaud him for the progress he’s made for his age and he’s surely only going to continue improving. However, he is riddled with injuries and there are still doubts over whether the striker’s role is suited to him since he can excel in other positions.

That said, he is not the man to fill Lukaku’s boots. I don’t think I stand alone in saying this either. This is no problem, though, as the summer transfer window is fast approaching and the board are confident that, despite the Coronavirus outbreak, the club can do their best to exploit the conditions.
