Manchester United forward Romelu Lukaku has vowed to hit the goal trail for his new club after opening his account against MLS outfit Real Salt Lake on Monday night.
Lukaku joined Man United in a £75m deal from Everton in this summer's transfer window, and immediately linked up with his new teammates on their pre-season tour of the United States after completing a medical in Los Angeles.
The 24-year-old drew a blank on his debut against Los Angeles Galaxy at the weekend, but the Belgian international fired home his team's second in their 2-1 win over Real Salt Lake last time out.
Lukaku is under no illusions as to his role this season, however, as the powerful forward promises to 'be the focal point of the team' when the new season gets underway next month.
Lukaku told MUTV:
"I’m here to score goals and be the focal point of the team. At Manchester United, we play to win and that’s the mentality when I get on the pitch and everything comes with it.
"From the first day, when we had the meeting with the manager in Los Angeles, you just felt that something special was happening. But it’s down to us now; we need to work hard every day and deliver in the pre-season games to be ready for the new season."
Man United will continue their USA tour with a clash against rivals Manchester City on Thursday night, before facing La Liga giants Real Madrid and Barcelona in quick succession.
The Red Devils will then return to Europe to take on Valerenga and Sampdoria respectively, before facing Champions League holders Real Madrid in the European Super Cup on August 8.
The new Premier League campaign will then get underway on the weekend of August 12, with Manchester United hosting London side West Ham United on the Sunday.
