The Belgium frontman has cemented a standing as one of the best No.9s in the business, but he claims to be able to do ‘a bit of everything’
Romelu Lukaku is one of the best No.9s in world football, but the Chelsea striker claims to hate his “goal poacher” reputation and believes he is at his most “dangerous” when fronting up opponents.
A remarkable record for club and country has seen the burly Belgian record 255 efforts on domestic stages and a further 67 strikes at international level.
He is a Premier League centurion, Serie A title winner and the all-time leading marksman for his nation, but Lukaku is eager to point out that he is about much more than hitting the back of the net.
