#1 Operation Lukaku
Last year when Manchester United was signing him over Alvaro Morata, many expected Lukaku to fail with the Old Trafford. After all, he had never really played regularly with a big club before and had a first touch so heavy that it almost felt like he was passing the ball one-touch.
However, his growth as a player has been significant in the last one year, which is why he is being linked with a move to Real Madrid. According to Don Balon, Real Madrid want to make him their No.9 in the upcoming season.

They want someone who could compete or even overtake Benzema at the capital. Florentino Perez, meanwhile, knows that Lukaku would cost a lot, which is why he is willing to offer Gareth Bale to the Red Devils in exchange for the Belgian striker, who was signed for £75 million + £15 million last summer by Manchester United.
