Manchester United have reportedly accepted £72 million from Inter Milan for striker, Romelu Lukaku, according to Daily Mail.

The player will complete his exit from Old Trafford after United agreed terms with Inter Milan.
The deal includes £12m in bonuses and this is coming after negotiations with Lukaku’s agent, Federico Pastorello in London.

The 26-year-old Belgium striker is expected to fly to Italy and undergo a medical on Thursday.

This follows his attempts to force a move this week by training for two days with his old club Anderlecht in Belgium without United’s permission.

Lukaku had also ignored United’s demands to return and has been fined two weeks’ wages.

The player was unhappy over United’s refusal to accept offers of £54m and £68m from Inter, while a proposed swap deal with Juventus for Paulo Dybala collapsed last week.

United have been determined to at least recoup the £75m they paid to Everton for Lukaku two years ago.
