With the quality of Belgium's midfield, Lukaku should be among the top scorers in Russia
The force of nature that is Manchester United’s number 9 will be among the favourites for the Golden Shoe thanks in part to his goalscoring exploits.

With his strength, pace, eye for goal and all-around play, Romelu will be expected to lead the line for Die Roten Teufel (The Red Devils) as the Belgian national team is called.
A definite starter whenever fit, he will have the best supporting cast of all the strikers on this list and is expected to be a strong contender for the Golden Boot.
With 25 goals from 61 caps for Belgium, expect him to add a few more goals when the World Cup comes around.

Well, I love football (a look at my body of work tells a better story). However, I also love other sports and from time to time, pen articles concerning basketball, tennis, boxing, and e-sports.
I follow these sports as much as I can, this explains why I write on a lot of different topics ranging from analysis and tactics to transfers and a whole lot more (reviews, previews and everything in between).
Real Madrid is the team closest to my heart (same goes for Rafa Nadal, Raul Gonzalez, Mike Tyson, Mortal Kombat and the San Antonio Spurs).
