Lukaku: What Next?
The Belgian striker is close to hitting top form once more. He has been let down as of late by the worrying form of strike partner Lautaro Martinez, who appears to be struggling.
Personally, the Belgian is playing his part in attempting to keep some stability to Inter's erratic start to the season.
