Lukaku has been in superb form this season, with a former Inter Milan star convinced only two strikers are his equal.
Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland are the only strikers left at the same level as Romelu Lukaku, says former Inter Milan forward Ivan Zamorano.
The 27-year-old is arguably enjoying his best campaign so far, having managed 18 goals and six assists in only 25 Serie A games. In fact, he has the most goal involvements in the Italian league to help Inter move top of the standings.
“Lukaku really is a top player now,” Zamorano has told Gazzetta dello Sport.
“If we are talking about purely center-forwards, only Robert Lewandowski and Erling Haaland are at his level.”
It’s not only Lukaku who has impressed at San Siro, though. Lautaro Martinez and Alexis Sanchez have shown promise alongside him, helping Inter score a joint-best record of 63 goals in the league this season.
“Alexis Sanchez has finally reached his peak form, physically and mentally,” Zamorano continued.
“If he’s in good shape, there is no stopping him. It’s a pity he is only an alternative and not first choice, but then he is up against Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukaku.
“I struggle to see another team in Europe with three such formidable strikers. Not even Barcelona, Real Madrid or Juventus can match Inter.
“As a former forward, I’d love to see all three play together, but it depends on the game and the opponent.”
