Lukaku: Racism still exits all over Europe but Italy is the best country I've played in

Inter striker Romelu Lukaku has acknowledged the fact that "racism still exists all over Europe", but says Italy is the best country he's ever played in.

Lukaku completed a £74 million ($94m) move to San Siro from Manchester United in the summer of 2019, calling time on a frustrating two-year spell at Old Trafford.

The Belgium international, who began his career at Anderlecht, also played for Chelsea, West Brom and Everton during his ten-year stay in the Premier League, but decided to embark on a new chapter in Italy after being deemed surplus to requirements by the Red Devils.
