Asked if competition with Ibrahimovic could help him improve, Lukaku told the BBC: "Of course. You don't fear the competition, you relish it."As long as it can make you better, make you win, you relish the challenge all the time. "I think it [Ibrahimovic's return] is really good for the team. It's good to have another guy in the team that's hungry to win trophies, that's what we want at Manchester United."With his character, his personality and also his attributes as a football player he brings us a lot and we will try to help him." At Old Trafford, Lukaku is playing under Jose Mourinho, who sold him in 2014 during his second spell in charge of Chelsea. However, the 24-year-old is excited to have the chance to work with the Portuguese again. "I wanted to play for him since I was 11 so when you get another chance like that you don't turn it down and I'm really grateful for the second opportunity," said Lukaku. "He's always been the same; a man that wants the best out of the players every day. He doesn't give the players time to rest on the pitch, he really wants everyone to fight on the pitch and in training and that's what I like about him."He's someone you can talk to and whatever you say he's going to listen to you, so I like that a lot."</blockquote>
