Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku has confessed that playing in Serie A would be a ‘dream’.
Juventus and Inter have been linked with Lukaku in recent weeks, and the Belgian claims he could have already been playing for the Bianconeri.
“When I left Chelsea I had the opportunity to go to Juventus,” the 25-year-old told Sky Sport Italia.
“I don’t know why, but I didn’t feel it. Something didn’t convince me. The next day, Conte left Juventus.

“When I left Chelsea I had the opportunity to go to Juventus,” the 25-year-old told Sky Sport Italia.
“I don’t know why, but I didn’t feel it. Something didn’t convince me. The next day, Conte left Juventus.
“Serie A is a dream, it would really be a dream. I hope I can play there at some point, although right now I’m focused on United and finishing fourth.”
Lukaku then recalled his first footballing memory, which involved two Italian clubs…
“It was the UEFA Cup Final between Inter and Lazio [in 1998],” he revealed.
“When I saw how Ronaldo rounded the goalkeeper I realised that if I wanted to become a professional, I would have to train very hard.”
