Romelu Lukaku's agent has described his potential move to Inter Milan as a 'difficult dream' and has urged the Italians to step up their interest in the wantaway striker.

Lukaku has been heavily linked with a move to Inter Milan this summer and recent reports suggest the Serie A club are ready to do all they can to fund a bid.

New manager Antonio Conte has identified the Belgian as one of his main targets and is said to be willing to sell two players to allow him to try and match the £80million fee placed on his head by United.

Lukaku has struggled for consistency since his big-money Old Trafford move from Everton but they still want to recoup the fee they paid if they let him go.

Sky Sports Italia have reported that Lukaku's agent, Federico Pastorello, is expected to hold fresh talks with the Serie A giants soon to try and get the move over the line.

And Lukaku's representative has given an update on the transfer saga.

He told Sky: "There is no news, I came to talk to the director to better understand the situation.

"We will see the decisions they will take. We do not decide them: it is clear that if they want to buy the player, they have to move.

"You need to ask the club. Inter are seriously trying, Lukaku is a declared goal. But it is still a difficult dream."

Lukaku won't force a move but had hoped his future would be clearer before United jetted out for their tour to Australia and the Far East.

Solskjaer's squad jet out to Perth on Sunday as their pre-season plans continue with Lukaku's involvement unclear - although he is expected to be part of the travelling group.
