Inter Milan ace Lukaku: I belong on world class list

Inter Milan ace Romelu Lukaku has declared himself "world class".

Lukaku feels he still doesn't get the recognition he deserves.

He said, “I have progressed a great deal, but always try to give more. Everyone talks about form, but I think it's more that I have stepped up a level in my career and now I'm trying to make another step. The objective is to win the Euros with Belgium.

“When people talk about Robert Lewandowski, Karim Benzema or Harry Kane, they are called 'world class' – but when it comes to me, it's just considered 'good form.'

“That motivated me to work harder and get stronger. Now I believe that I belong in that list of world class players."

Lukaku was asked about his rivalry with Juventus striker Cristiano Ronaldo.

“I'd like to have Ronaldo's dribbling skills and his shot. I think he'd like my power and the way I play with my back to the goal."
