Toni: Juventus and Inter Milan right to ignore Lukaku

Italy World Cup winner Luca Toni is no great fan of Roma striker Romelu Lukaku.

Toni says Inter Milan and Juventus are better off not signing the Chelsea-owned centre-forward over the summer.

"Romelu is a great centre forward, a certainty. But both Inter and Juve were right to focus on younger attackers also for the future," argued Toni.

"Lautaro Martinez is increasingly a leader and goalscorer. And Inter's luck is that in Europe they still don't consider him on par with other top players and haven't taken him away with pharaonic offers... Juventus' attackers have stopped scoring.

"There are four of them (Duasn Vlahovic, Fede Chiesa, Moise Kean, Arek Milik) and all very strong: I think it's the least of Max Allegri's problems, their goals will come."
