Bill Kenwright was key to Everton keeping hold of Romelu Lukaku this summer.

The Mirror says Lukaku was kept away from the clutches of would be predators like Chelsea and a number of Italian clubs.

For that Everton can thank Kenwright who made it a personal mission to retain the Belgian international with a £75million price tag.

In the end Lukaku promised to give Everton one more season before reviewing his future again next summer.
