Manchester United will experience some major shake up, when a new manager arrives in the summer. From all indications, Van Gaal and United will part ways at the end of the season.
José Mourinho is the favorite for the United job.
With José at the helm of affairs at United, Lukaku remain a viable target for United.
Both men worked together at Chelsea, and a reunion at Old Trafford is possible.
Redlyunited looks at four reasons Lukaku would be a perfect signing for United.
1. His age:
Manchester United have been linked with a lot of strikers in the summer. Chief among them are Zlatan Ibrahimovic (34), Edison Cavani (29), Gonzalo Higiuan (28) and a few others.
At 22, Lukaku represents the future.
He has already proven himself as a good goal scorer and all round forward. Young, strong, agile and efficient. He would be a handful addition to any team.
2. He understands the league
Quite a lot of the strikers current linked to United are players that would need time to settle into the country (England), and the league.
Haven already played at Chelsea and currently Everton's highest goal scorer this season and the last, the Belgian understands the league and the country. He'll need less time to adapt to life at Old Trafford.
3. Powerful youthful combination with Martial, Rashford, Lingard.
His arrival at United will make United's attack younger, but with an undoubtable bright prospect.
His combination with either Martial or Rashford looks good on paper.
Their trio can also always interchange positions.
This would likely spark memories of the deadly partnership between C. Ronaldo, Rooney, Tevez and Nani.
4. Rooney's aging, perfect replacement
Imagine replacing a former Everton man with a new Everton player. Coincidence: Maybe.
Wayne Rooney's form over the last two seasons have shown that the Englishman is approaching the twilight of his career.
At thirty, Rooney can't be depended on solely as United's top striker. And getting Lukaku to replace him would almost be perfect.
