Romelu Lukaku: Everton striker arrested last week in Los Angeles after noise complaint
Everton striker Romelu Lukaku was
arrested in Los Angeles last week following a noise complaint - and is
due to appear in court on 2 October.
Lukaku, who is set to have a medical at Manchester United
before a £75m move, was given a "misdemeanour citation" after officers
responded to five other noise complaints at the same location.
A Beverly Hills police statement said Lukaku was released at the scene following the incident on 2 July.
Lukaku has been on holiday in the US.
The
Belgian has been pictured on social media taking part in fitness
sessions with Manchester United's world record signing Paul Pogba. There
is no suggestion the French midfielder was with Lukaku at the scene.
