Romelu Lukaku travelled with the United squad for their pre-season tour in midst of numerous speculations of his impending departure but did not play a minute's football. The Belgian had failed to impress Solskjaer last season and has been linked with a move away since the start of the summer. Inter Milan is his preferred destination, with a deal between the two clubs the only constraint in that move. Even though Inter have failed to meet the valuation of the player so far, it seems United have already found his replacement.

Sky Sports reports that Manchester United will target Lyon striker Moussa Dembele as a replacement for Lukaku should he make the move this summer. The 23 year old is just the kind of player that Solskjaer wants in his team, with his speed and technical nous certainly an upgrade from Lukaku. The Belgian is a fantastic goalscorer, but lacks the agility that Solskjaer wants in his No. 9, which has been his doom at Old Trafford.
