Belgium coach Roberto Martinez has taken aim at Manchester United over their treatment of Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku.

Martinez feels Lukaku was made a scapegoat at Old Trafford.

“You can see the player going through phases, good moments, bad moments, but what we've seen with Romelu is he's never lost his outstanding quality which is scoring goals," Martinez told Talksport.

“Now we've seen a real maturity in his play. The time he had at Manchester United, he was so desperate to win trophies and he took a lot of responsibility on his shoulders and probably took a lot of blame, in my eyes, very unfairly.

“But going to Italy, he's in the middle of a new project, he's taken that responsibility and those difficulties he had in England in a good way.

“The player we have now is a player in the best maturity moment of his career."
