The former Manchester United striker has compared the demands between the Serie A and Premier League.
The Serie A has a much greater focus on the tactical side of the game compared to the Premier League, says Romelu Lukaku, who states only victory counts in Italy.
The Belgian previously spent eight years plying his trade in England with Chelsea, West Brom, Everton, and Manchester United before joining Inter Milan in the summer of 2019 on a €74m transfer.
Lukaku has since enjoyed a prolific start to his Serie A career, scoring 34 goals in only 49 appearances, and he’s now opened up a little on his experience of Italian football.
“In Italy, only the victory counts,” he told Voetbal International.
“And that’s the only thing I think about when I enter the field. The football approach in Serie A is completely different compared to England.
“There is an incredible attention to the tactical aspect, and this obliges me to never make mistakes. Neither in moving nor in positioning.”
Lukaku is set to return to action for Inter on January 3 against Crotone once the Serie A winter break ends.
