Luc Nilis is perhaps the most graceful striker Belgium has ever had. The former PSV and RSC Anderlecht striker, among others, spoke to Voetbal International about Romelu Lukaku. Will “Big Rom” shine in Germany?
Romelu Lukaku, top scorer in the Euro?
Nilis considers Lukaku as one of the candidates who could become the top scorer at Euro 2024. Patro Eisden’s assistant coach spoke to Voetbal International about this.
“I secretly hope that Lukaku will be there, because that would also mean that Belgium will have a good run at the European Championship. I think a striker like Lukaku is still one of the candidates. Along with Mbappé and Kane, he would be part of my top three. He is very strong, stable on the pitch, difficult to defend. He is someone who is really there. Lukaku is a complete attacker with a good profile,” said Nilis.
Lukaku scored 6 goals at a Euro
So far, the striker has played 10 matches in the European Championship. During these meetings, Lukaku managed to score six goals. Of this total, one goal was scored after the group stage, during which he played four matches. In six group matches, he has therefore scored five times.
Lukaku will undoubtedly want to shine at the European Championship. After all, the striker is also aiming for a transfer to another club. At Chelsea, we no longer count on him. Can Lukaku silence critics in Germany? All of Belgium hopes so.
