Everton have successfully completed the signing of Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea in a club-record deal worth £28m.
The talented striker had spent the past two seasons on loan at West Bromwich Albion and Everton respectively, and recent reports had claimed that the 21-year-old could leave the Blues this summer.
Having impressed in his stint with the Toffees last season, manager Roberto Martinez has decided to splash a club-record fee to seal Lukaku's services.
This is what Lukaku had to say on the transfer : "I'm really excited to be re-joining Everton, I had a fantastic experience last season and a great relationship with the manager, the chairman, the staff and the players.
"I have a good relationship with the players. This is the place where I belong. I decided quickly I wanted to come back. Here I have the trust of the staff and supporters."
