Romelu Lukaku has said that he knows where he will be playing club football next season.
Speaking to Sky Sports News HQ, Lukaku was tight-lipped about what team he would be playing for but that he has made up his mind.
“My agent knows what’s going to happen. I know what I want to do, and whenever something happens, you guys will know.”
The Belgian was speaking after their international friendly victory over the Czech Republic on Monday night and has long been touted to return to Chelsea.
The 24-year-old did not sign a new contract at Everton, saying that he wants to play Champions League football but a potential suitor will have to cough up a large amount for the striker after scored 25 league goals this season, only second to Tottenham striker Harry Kane.
Lukaku also paid tribute to Cheick Tiote, who passed away on Monday. Lukaku knew Tiote through Anderlecht.
“He was there the first year I arrived and I saw him frequently,” Lukaku said. “This is such a shock. He was a really nice guy, a great guy and a leader as well. Every time I saw him after that and played him in the Premier League, he remembered me as a small kid.
“It’s devastating for the players of the Ivory Coast and his family and friends. All our thoughts are with them.”
He will next line out on Friday night when Belgium face Estonia in a World Cup Qualifier.
