Has anyone else been following this lads progress. Hes a 6 foot 3 striker for Anderlecht who only turned 16 in May but has already scored 3 goals for Anderlecht this season and 1 for the Belgium under 21s. Already looking a huge prospect.

Scored the winner again today for RSC Anderlecht...

Haven't seen that much of him myself (only highlights on tv), but he's supposed to be a big talent. There was a lot of interest in him last year (at 15), including from Man United if I'm not mistaken, but he decided to stay at Anderlecht to finish school in Belgium and get first team football at Anderlecht.

His dad was a professional footballer in Belgium as well by the way... Not that it matters or anything..

After quite a few years in the dark, Belgium football really seems to be exploding with the youthful talent they're bringing through...

Seems an interesting prospect.

But what are the chances that he's got some forged passport or something, like Adu, Martins etc etc.

He was born in Boom, a town in Belgium, so I'm pretty sure the age on his passport is right. His father, Roger Lukaku, was born in Congo and moved to Belgium to persue his own professional football carreer.

How's that being racist you dipshite?

The likes of Adu and Martins have had suspicions of fraudulent passports/birth certificates hanging over their heads for years. A six foot three 15 year old of African descent is going to raise the ire of followers.

Nice power, pace, skills, finishing. If he is really 16, looks like a great prodigy to me. Rooney like, if you may. Imagine if he plays for Congo, then they will have a Lukaku-Lua Lua combination

Well hes already played for the Belgium under 21s and was set for a senior call but the under 21s need him for their qualifying games instead of him playing friendlies for the seniors

How's his all-round game, Cristiano_RAFC? Are the Belgians hyping him up much?

Looks like Advocaat will have a decent pool for Euro 2012. At a guess -

GK - Gillet/Bailly/Proto
RB - Vanden Borre/De Laet
LB - Pocognoli/Lombaerts
CD - Kompany/Vermaelen/Van Buyten/Alderweireld
DM - Vertonghen/Simons
CM - Defour/Witsel/Fellaini/Carcela-Gonzalez
AM - Hazard/Maartens
ST - Lukaku/Dembele/Miralles/De Sutter

Very promising side indeed.

Indeed.

Lukaku is the white Rooney and too small for the prem as well.
