AS Roma chief Tiago Pinto says it's too soon to consider a permanent deal for Romelu Lukaku.

Lukaku is on-loan at Roma from Chelsea this season without a permanent option.

Pinto said: "We've already courted him, otherwise he wouldn't be here (laughs).

"Too soon to talk about this, let's enjoy Lukaku until the end, try not to do what you did with Dybala when you always asked about the clause, you are a pain in the a** (laughs)."

He also said: "We know that the Champions League takes you to a different level and it is everyone's goal, we do our job and try to do better in Serie A and the Europa League to get to the Champions League. We're not envious, we're trying to get there too."
