ROMELU LUKAKU admits he would love to leave Manchester United for Italy.

The Belgian hitman, 25, has come under fire for his lack of consistency and his long-term future at Old Trafford remains uncertain.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is set to have a clearout in the summer, so he can rebuild his squad into one that is capable of closing the gap to Manchester City.

Lukaku - who has netted 15 times and laid on three assists in all competitions so far this term - could be one of those to make way for Solskjaer's revolution.

SunSport recently revealed that United will listen to offers of £75million for the Belgium star, whose supposed favoured destination is Juventus.

And Lukaku himself, admits he is tempted by a move to Italy.

He said: "Playing in Serie A is a dream, it would be really a dream.

"I hope to be able to play sooner or later, even if at the moment I am focused on United."

Lukaku's representative, Federico Pastorello, revealed earlier this month his client would discuss his future in the summer - despite him having three years left to run on his present deal.

Pastorello said: "At the moment he is very focused on finishing the season.

"The competition for third and fourth place in England is very tight so let's see what will happen in the future at the end the season."

Lukaku - who failed to make an impact when he came on as a substitute in the 2-0 defeat at home to Manchester City on Wednesday - will hope to start against his former club Chelsea on Sunday.
