Former Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has defended Romelu Lukaku over his move to Inter Milan.

It's been suggested Lukaku was forced to leave last month.

Mourinho signed Lukaku from Everton in 2017 for 75m, and how the Belgian has always scored goals.

"For West Bromwich Albion, for Everton, for United," he told the Telegraph.

"In terms of Lukaku the move looks more like player ambition, player desire to change, than [the notion] he didn't deliver anything for the club."

Despite a positive first season, Lukaku was offloaded to Inter Milan in a permanent 72m deal last month.
