Footballer Romelu Lukaku annoyed with club Everton after they leave him to pay his £6,500 private-jet fare


Footballer Romelu Lukaku is angry with his club side Everton because they refused to pay his fare of £6500 from international duty with Belgium making him and teammate Kevin Mirallas to fork out £13000 on a private jet flight back to England from Cyprus after Tuesday night’s World Cup qualifying win.

Lukaku is reportedly angry because Liverpool, Manchester United, Manchester City and Burnley - all agreed to stump up the £6,500 cost per head for the flight for their players, as they had league games on Saturday but Everton ditched him and Mirallas because their own league game was on Monday.
According to Mirror UK;
Boss Ronald Koeman gave his squad Wednesday off then began full preparations for the trip to Wearside on Thursday, and club chiefs did not feel it was necessary to fork out £13,000 to bring their Belgians back early.
Lukaku, who scored his first two goals of the season in the 3-0 win in Nicosia, did not see it that way and is irritated by the club’s stance.
A source said...
“The Belgium players at clubs in the north-west organised a private jet to fly them home from Cyprus, to get back quicker. All the other clubs agreed to pay the £6,500 cost for their players, and Lukaku wasn’t happy when Everton told him they wouldn’t pay. Mirallas was in the same position, and the two of them ended up paying for the flights themselves.”
