Former midfielder Luis Figo has acknowledged that he has been left impressed by Inter Milan forward Romelu Lukaku.
Since leaving Manchester United for San Siro in the summer, Lukaku has contributed 23 goals from 34 appearances in all competitions.
Despite not being surprised by the Belgium international's form, Figo has praised the efforts of the 26-year-old as Inter challenge for the Serie A title and the Europa League.
The legendary Portuguese told L'Avenir: "He has been fantastic this year. He is happy, and I think you notice it. He scores a lot, it helps if the team is solid and believe in their chances of winning the Scudetto.
"There are many differences between Serie A and the Premier League, but he doesn't surprise me. When you have a sense of goal like that, you will always score, even if you play in China."
Figo spent the final four years of his career at Inter, scoring 11 goals from 138 appearances before retiring in 2009.
