Manchester United forward Romelu Lukaku has been training with former club Anderlecht Under-18s in a bid to stay fit ahead of his Old Trafford exit, which is reportedly set for the summer.

According to reports, Lukaku has not trained with his United teammates this summer, missing all the club's pre-season matches due to a reported ankle injury.

However, the Belgian hitman has been pictured training with Anderlecht's kids on Sunday, August 4, as he attempts to force a move to Italy.

Mail Online reports that United's players had the day off on Monday, August 4, and it remains unclear if United are aware of the latest developments.

Lukaku was earlier lined up to seal a move to Juventus in a sensational swap deal that would have seen Juventus playmaker Paulo Dybala and possibly Mario Mandzukic join Old Trafford.

However, the deal appears to have stalled due to Dybala's massive wage demands of £18m-a-year in wages and a £13m to his agent.

With the Juventus move looking unlikely, Inter Milan could be Lukaku's new destination, with the Serie A giants understood to be leading the chase for the 26-year-old's signature.
