Instead, he had two season-long deals &#8211; first with <a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonfootball.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/clubs\/west-brom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">West Bromwich Albion<\/a> and then with <a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonfootball.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/clubs\/everton\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Everton<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Both were extremely successful and after scoring 15 goals in his loan with Everton, the Toffees made his loan permanent for \u00a328 million in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>The pressure was on the then 21-year-old to continue to deliver. However, he dealt with it magnificently, scoring a total of 61 totals in the three years that followed.<\/p>\n<p>Following his impressive form at Everton, he sealed a \u00a375 million transfer to Manchester United.<\/p>\n<p>Many considered his time at Old Trafford to be underwhelming due to going long periods without a goal across the two seasons. However, he scored 35 goals during his time with Manchester United.<\/p>\n<p>Lukaku is also a seasoned international with Belgium. Having made his debut in 2010, he has gone onto make 81 appearances for the Red Devils. Furthermore, he is Belgium&#8217;s all-time leading scorer with 48 goals.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Romelu Lukaku has just arrived in Milano!
