Chelsea and Liverpool target Romelu Lukaku has said that he would prefer to join Real Madrid when he leaves Anderlecht.
The 17-year-old striker is regarded as one of the brightest prospects in Europe and started for Belgium against Germany on Friday night.
He scored 18 goals in 43 games for Anderlecht last season, and has already bagged three goals in seven games this term - bringing the inevitable transfer speculation over his future.
Lukaku's agent Christophe Henrotay claimed last month that he had spoken to Liverpool while Chelsea and Inter have been linked to him for over a year - since ne started to be dubbed the 'new Didier Drogba'.
Jose Mourinho's Real Madrid are also interested and it is said they tried to lure him with a £16m bid last month.
In an interview with Spanish daily El Mundo Deportivo, Lukaku said that he has turned down interest from Real Madrid for now, in order to continue his studies in Belgium while playing for Anderlecht.
But, when asked about the chances of joining the Spanish side or the likes of Chelsea in the future, he said: "If I had my way, I would go to Real Madrid."
