Romelu Lukaku vs Fabricio Coloccini

According to reports from The Metro, Arsenal are monitoring Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur target Jordan Lukaku ahead of the summer transfer window. 

As you may have guessed, the 21-year-old is the brother of Everton striker Romelu Lukaku. He currently plies his trade with Oostende in the Belgian top flight, amassing 61 league appearances since signing from Anderlecht, initially on loan, in summer 2013.

The promising left-back has been in good form this season, muscling his way into the Belgium national team to set up his brother in a 2-1 defeat to Portugal during the recent international break, and is attracting significant Premier League interest ahead of the summer transfer window.

Indeed, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur were both linked with the 5 foot 10 defender last month whilst the latest reports from The Metro – citing Calcio Mercato – claim Premier League rivals Arsenal are monitoring his progress as well.

Whilst The Metro and Calcio Mercato fail to mention a potential transfer fee, recent reports have claimed Oostende could sell for just £3million during the coming transfer window – when Jordan Lukaku’s contract will have entered its final twelve months.
