Lukaku out of United Squad for Norway Trip

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has named a 26-man squad to travel to Norway, and striker Romelu Lukaku is not included in it. 

United face Kristiansund BK in a friendly on Tuesday as part of their pre-season preparations. It's the penultimate fixture of this period before they face AC Milan in Cardiff this weekend.

Lukaku traveled on the club's summer tour to Australia, Singapore and China but did not feature in any of their four games.

This latest omission will all but clarify to United fans that 26-year-old Belgian international is on the move from Old Trafford.

 

Solskjaer, who is preparing for his first full season in charge, appears to be ready to move on without him but they won't want to move him on at a loss after joining from Everton for £75m in 2017.

Inter Milan have stated their interest in him with Antonio Conte stating, "You know very well that I like this player."

Inter initially offered an up-front payment of £57m and that was rejected by United and it's now believed they have competition from Serie A champions Juventus.

Argentina's Paulo Dybala is said to be on the brink of a move away from Turin and both Tottenham and United have been linked with him so it could work out as a straight swap between him and Lukaku.
