English Premier League champion Chelsea has also reportedly been trying to re-sign Lukaku in this summer transfer window. But strengthening the strike force has been a priority for Mourinho ahead of his second season in charge at United after Zlatan Ibrahimovic was released. Lukaku was the second highest scorer in the Premier League last season, netting 25 as Everton finished seventh in the standings. Everton is yet to comment on the future of Lukaku, who has publicly stated his desire to play in the Champions League next season. ——More AP Premier League coverage: http://www.apnews.com/tag/PremierLeague
