The agent of Anderlecht star Romelu Lukaku claims several club are keeping tabs on the highly-rated player.

Lukaku, 17, has courted the interest of several top European sides after impressing during his fledging career at the Belgian outfit.

The striker's representative claims an offer has already been tabled for his client's services as interest in the player mounts.

But Christophe Henrotay, Lukaku's representative, says nothing definite has been put forward and his player will remain at Anderlecht in the meantime.

Henrotay told calciomercato.it: "Inter and Juventus are following him, but there is nothing concrete on the table and no proposal has been reached.

"Lukaku is followed by all the big European clubs. I think it is a normal thing because he's 17-years-old and has already shown good things.

"In the past we received an offer which was not interesting for us. Let's see what happens in January or June."

More likely

Henrotay believes his client's departure is inevitable and the club must recognise it will be near impossible for them to keep hold of the promising prospect.

But he insisted such a situation would be in the best interests of the player and the club. He added: "I think it is more likely he will leave in the summer, but in football you never know.

"The Anderlecht position? They know they have a great player and would like to keep him as long as possible.

"At the same time, they are realistic and they know that if an important offer arrives, the best thing for all would be to sell him.

"We must only think of progress to confirm and improve with Anderlecht what good was done last season."
