Romelu Lukaku: Everything about Inter Milan very special

Romelu Lukaku is delighted with his first weeks at Inter Milan.

The Belgium striker is already off the mark, scoring on debut in victory over Lecce on Monday night.

“I'm always ready and prepare well. For the goal, I knew where the ball would end up: it was a fantastic moment, my whole family was at the stadium. I also knew that we would win, also because we've been training really well," Lukaku told Inter TV.

“Everything was very special. I've missed playing in such a warm environment, with flags and a full stadium before kick-off. It was special and I was really excited: I had goose bumps because the history of the club really was perceptible. I thought of all the great players who have played in that stadium, while the crowd got behind us during every piece of play.

“There's the feeling that something big is emerging this season, but now we have to continue working hard, because the road ahead is still a long one. However, the start we've made has been fantastic."
