Chelsea have reportedly lodged a firm bid for Anderlecht's teenage striker Romelu Lukaku.
The Brussels club claimed over a month ago that negotiations had begun over taking the teenage sensation to Stamford Bridge, even though the Blues had not appointed new manager Andre Villas-Boas at that time.
Now, BBC Sport reports, Chelsea have gone as far as offering an undisclosed amount for the Belgium international, who already stands 6ft 3in tall at the age of 18.
Lukaku has also been linked with Manchester City, Arsenal and Tottenham.
