Manchester United have agreed a bumper deal with Everton for the transfer of Romelu Lukaku, the Red Devils have confirmed.
Lukaku, 24, is set to reunite with former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford after the two clubs settled on a reported £75million fee.
The deal remains subject to Lukaku agreeing personal terms and passing a medical.
A brief United statement read: "Manchester United is delighted to announce that it has agreed a fee with Everton for the transfer of Romelu Lukaku. The transfer is subject to a medical and personal terms."
United added that a further announcement is to be made in due course, which could be an indication that captain Wayne Rooney is to seal a return to Goodison Park – 13 years after leaving Merseyside to join United.
The Red Devils were reportedly close to signing Real Madrid forward Alvaro Morata to help fill the void left by last season's top goalscorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who did not have his contract renewed following a serious knee injury suffered in April.
But Mourinho and United have turned to Belgium international Lukaku to try to fix their scoring woes, having only found the back of the net on 54 occasions in the Premier League last term - the lowest tally among the top seven teams.
Lukaku was reportedly also a priority target for former club Chelsea, with the Blues said to have made a late move to match United's offer.
