It is only natural that he  wants to develop his career at the biggest club. He will be a great  addition to the group and I know they will make him very welcome. I am  really looking forward to working with him again."This will be Lukaku’s second stint under Mourinho following their  previous spell together at Chelsea. However, the Portuguese loaned the  striker to Everton soon after returning to Stamford Bridge in 2013  before selling him to the Toffees on a £28m deal the following summer.    The Belgian thanked Everton for his time at the club, but is eager to  work with Mourinho again and wear the red jersey of Manchester United."I would like to start by thanking Everton and the fans for the last  four wonderful seasons, I have made some special friends and we have  shared some amazing moments," Lukaku said.<img src="http://i.imgur.com/dTxN0uC.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />  "However, when Manchester United and Jose Mourinho come knocking at  the door it is an opportunity of a lifetime and one that I could not  turn down. You could see the fight, determination and the spirit in this  team during the Europa League final and I want to become a part of  that."I cannot wait to run out at Old Trafford in front of 75,000 fans but  before that pre-season is where the hard work starts and I am looking  forward to that first training session."Lukaku, who scored 87 goals in 166 games for Everton, is United’s second  major signing of the summer following the earlier arrival of Swedish  defender Victor Lindelof from Benfica.</blockquote>
