The Newest Red Devil: Romelu Lukaku

£90million.

That's a lotta bloody quid.

We could convert that number into other currencies, for frame of reference, but why?

Just know that if it was freighted across the English Channel, it'd be a veritable shipload of dosh.

All of it is going toward prying Belgian international Romelu Lukaku away from Everton.

Manchester United is, unsurprisingly, the club doling it out:

• The £75million transfer fee is second only to Paul Progba's £89million move, and
• At least £15million in incentives and bonuses are coming with it.

Lukaku will be earning £200,000 a week. For our American readers, that's almost $258,000 at today's rate; for our ever-increasing horde of digirati, it's BTC 113.

 

Dude's genes are loaded with football DNA:

• Pops -- Roger Manema Lukaku -- played eight seasons in Belgium, and
• Little bro Jordan is a left back for Lazio.

The 23-year-old Lukaku amassed 25 goals for Everton last season. That's only two fewer than relegated Middlesbrough scored as a team.

Here are a couple of his:

If Ronaldo's serious about skipping outta Real Madrid and eyeing a return to the Red Devils, José Mourinho's squad could have a net value of many third-world countries.

Now all he and his new acquisition need to do is justify it.
