Romelu Lukaku’s agent has claimed that Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain are leading the chase for the Everton striker.
Lukaku’s future with the Blues appears ominous after the Belgium international revealed his desire to pursue Champions League football from next season.
Goodison Park officials are believed to have set the 22-year-old’s price tag at £50 million in a bid to deter potential suitors.
But Mino Raiola, Lukaku’s agent, insists that demand is already high for the front man, who has notched 18 Premier League goals already this season.
“Lukaku? Of course, Juventus as a solution could go well,” he told Gazzetta dello Sport.
“But keep an eye on PSG and Real Madrid too for the Everton striker.
“Does it also depend on [Gonzalo] Higuain’s future? The environment has changed in Paris.
“I don’t know if they’re ready to spend €90 million – the price of oil has fallen and the emir is keeping more in his pocket. Also for this reason he’s insisting on keeping Ibra (Zlatan Ibrahimovic).”
