Lukaku told he's unstoppable with 'American football player' build as Inter coach hails 'complete athlete'

Antonio Pintus has been working with the Belgian striker at San Siro and believes he has become almost impossible to contain

Romelu Lukaku now boasts the build of "an American football player", says Inter fitness coach Antonio Pintus, with the Belgian striker considered to have become "a complete athlete".

A burly 27-year-old has always boasted plenty of power in his game, but new heights are being scaled by a prolific frontman at San Siro.

Pintus says the former Everton and Manchester United star has become virtually unstoppable since arriving in Italian football, with obvious physical qualities complementing a skill set that has delivered 61 goals through 92 appearances.
