He said: "It is the club and of course it is an interesting situation When this type of decision is [made, it is] because they all agree. The player and club are working hard to try and find best solution."

Aside from Lukaku, Kai Havertz and Callum Hudson-Odoi are also expected to head for the exit door soon.
