Real Madrid just won their 12th Champions League and will play vs Manchester United in UEFA Super Cup in August as Man United won the UEFA Europa League.
So any deals between these clubs may not happen before that match as they would not want a former player to score or maybe save a goal in that big match.
Jose Mourinho is convinced that his team needs a powerful and quick striker if they are to challenge for Premier League and maybe Champions League next season but for the time being, he has not found his wish been fulfilled.
Lukaku was thought to be a target for Man United but it looks like he will join Chelsea as he said after training with Belgium yesterday that he has already agreed a move to an English club that will compete for Premier League and Champions League next season and that is definitely the end of Diego Costa at Chelsea.
Manchester United may have to act quickly if they are to bring world class players in as Inter Milan is set to keep Ivan Perisic at San Siro as their new manager Luciano Spalletti doesn't want to sell the winger.
