Romelu Lukaku has credited Michael Carrick with helping him to thrive at Manchester United following a £75 million ($101m) transfer.
With the Red Devils having invested considerable faith and funds in the Belgium international, much was expected of him upon his arrival at Old Trafford in the summer of 2017.
Lukaku was able to hit the ground running and, despite enduring the odd wobble, ended his debut campaign with 27 goals across all competitions.
His hard work on the training ground was rewarded with a regular role under Jose Mourinho, but the 25-year-old has been quick to recognise the role a long-serving team-mate played in his development.
