ROMELU LUKAKU will have to stay at Manchester United if Paulo Dybala rejects a move to the Premier League – with Inter Milan’s hopes of a deal for the striker now dead.
United are putting the finer touches to their agreement with Juventus which will see their Belgian striker join the Serie A champions in exchange for Argentina star Dybala.
Lukaku, 26, is happy with the terms on offer from Juve but the whole deal now hinges on whether Dybala decides to move to the Premier League or not.
And SunSport understands should the forward opt to stay in Turin, Lukaku will now remain at Old Trafford for the season with no other serious offers on the table.
Inter saw their first genuine bid of £54million quickly rejected by United last month and since then have been stalling over increasing their offer.
And though manager Antonio Conte has made it clear to his San Siro bosses that he wants Lukaku as his number one priority, the backing is not coming from above.
That means they are not going to increase their offer, and with United simply refusing to budge on their valuation of £75m-£80m they are no longer considered serious bidders.
So Lukaku’s future now hinges on whether United can convince Dybala to make the move to Old Trafford.
The 25-year-old is due to meet with Juve manager Maurizio Sarri after training today for showdown talks over his future.
He wants to know exactly how Sarri sees his role at the club this season – where he is likely to play second fiddle to Cristiano Ronaldo.
And then United are going to need to find wages in the region of £350,000-a-week, with the initial doubts made by the striker’s agent on Wednesday throwing the whole move into doubt.
United expect to know for certain within the next 48 hours if the Dybala deal is a goer or not, and do not want to be left hanging around as the transfer window closure draws on.

Lukaku is now back in the North-West training with the United squad and is understood to be relaxed about the situation.
That means if the Juve deal falls through, he will happily get his head down and try to force his way into Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s squad this season.
But having failed to play in any of the five pre-season friendlies so far, the forward will be playing catch-up with his fitness.
