Everton Agree Fee With Man Utd For Lukaku

Everton have agreed a fee believed to be in the region of £75m with Manchester United for Romelu Lukaku b

The 24-year-old Belgium international scored 25 Premier League goals last season.

The move for Lukaku is not connected to talks aimed at taking United forward Wayne Rooney to Everton.

More to follow.

Oh well! Onwards and upwards!

75m is not enough, disappointed with the fee but not the deal.

 

[LostLegend]

Little bit more than "a penny" under £100 mil... unless there's add-ons or a player thrown in?

 

[BlueToff]

I reckon £75m is the bare minimum we should be looking at.

As said in the other thread, I'm cautiously optimistic that this may well be forcing Chelsea's hand.

OR...

This includes paying off Rooney's signing on fee.

 

[Groucho]

I appreciate there'll be a fume regardless of whatever happens.

Firstly we'll miss his goals, but it'll be easier for us to replace him now that one or two years ago.

I won't miss his antics or his agent.

 

[FCBarça]

Will Chelsea enter into a bidding war now I wonder?

Surprising that the Rooney aspect of it is not linked

 

[Soap]

Absolutely devastated. Lose our best player, sign the fat one.

 

[AndyC]

I will be very disappointed if having stated £100m, Everton agree to £75m.
It's a humongous fee, but having said one thing, to then agree to a 25% lower fee is not good.
Maybe this, if true, will sting Chelsea into bidding and upping the ante.
Lukaku hanging around so much with Pogba has certainly been a factor if he goes to Untied.

Not even arsed anymore. Expected him to go. Got almost triple what we paid for him. He showed a lot of disrespect for the club while he was here. Hope he bombs at Utd. Hope Raiola goes to prison for tax fraud or something the bad snide.

You can be assured it is.

 

[Jadubsee]

Not enough, really not happy with that. Should be £80m minimum.

 

[DanB90]

If he goes to United, be prepared to see him and pogba celebrating a goal by linking their arms in the air to form a love heart, like them knobhead couples do on a beach holiday. The utter biffs.

 

[DanEFC92]

Getting rid of Rom, who wasn't 'Everton'.

Bringing a blue home in Wayne.

Great stuff.

 

[ProZ]

75 million? Where they wearing balaclavas.

 

[cronullasharks]

I've dreaded this day for a while, can only hope those goals are replaced somehow.
