Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku is set to leave on loan but the player's agent says he will not be heading to Fulham.

The 19-year-old is keen to move on in search of first-team football and reports had claimed he was ready to make the short switch to Craven Cottage before the transfer window closes.
Lukaku's agent Christophe Henrotay has confirmed he is in talks with a Premier League club over a season-long loan deal but insists it is not the Cottagers.
"I can assure you that Romelu is not going to Fulham," Henrotay told Sport/Foot. "I am currently finalising the details with another Premier League club.
"Romelu will go on loan. I cannot say which team he will join, or when it will happen, but things are progressing."
It is thought Chelsea would prefer for him to stay in London so it will be easier to keep tabs on him, which would make West Ham or QPR favourites to land him.
