10 Best Premier League Players Right Now

It's hard to believe that Romelu Lukaku is only 23 years of age, because it already feels like he's been around for a long time after appearing on English football fan's radars when Chelsea picked him up as an 18-year-old from Anderlecht for a reported fee of around £20million.

It's always been a source of purplexion that Chelsea never saw a use for Lukaku, sending him out on loan spells at West Brom and Everton before eventually being sold to the latter for around £28million. That's because his goalscoring record in those years had been phenomenal.

Lukaku made an immediate impact at Albion, scoring 17 goals, which actually meant he outscored all of his colleagues at Chelsea! It made a mockery of the decision to loan him out again, but that's exactly what they did and he ended that season with another impressive goal tally of 15.

After signing for Everton permanently, Lukaku has gone from strength to strength and proved that he is a genuine world class striker. With a terrifying combination of strength and speed, he is a nightmare for defenders around the country. With plenty of time left on his clock, he has what it takes to eventually be regarded as one of the world's best.
