Romelu Lukaku's time at Everton appears to be over, with the striker confirming that he's made a decision on his future after a 'difficult' last few weeks at Goodison Park.
Lukaku's form was a rare highlight in a disappointing season for the Toffees, who dismissed manager Roberto Martinez before the end of the campaign and finished 11th in the Premier League. The Belgian striker's 25 goals in 46 games confirmed his status as one of the finest strikers in the league though and now it appears that Lukaku has outgrown Everton, with Chelsea, Manchester United and Juventus all vying for his signature.
Speaking to the Belgian press during The Red Devils preparation for Euro 2016, Lukaku said:

"I do know myself. There are plenty of clubs interested and there are a few clubs interested. In my head I've already taken a decision, we'll see. Will I go back to Chelsea? We'll see!"
"A transfer has no influence on my European Championships... In all competitions together I scored 25 times. The last few weeks at Everton were quite difficult, as a striker, I also depend on the supply of my teammates, but I continued to work just hard for me. So that I am ready to start at the European Championship."
Lukaku arrived at Everton from Chelsea for a fee of £28m in 2014. It is believed a bid of upwards of £60m will be required to secure his services.
