Osman: Lukaku comments should have been kept in-house

Everton striker Romelu Lukaku is “trying to stir the pot” to force a move away, says former Toffees midfielder Leon Osman.

The Belgian this week rejected a new five-year contrat thought to be worth about £140,000 a week.

He also questioned whether Everton shared his ambition to play Champions League football.

"His thoughts should have been done in-house", said Osman. "It makes it feel like he's looking for a move away, like he's trying to stir the pot".
