Romelu Lukaku has taken to social media platform Twitter to blast Corriere dello Sport for the ‘black friday’ headline they ran with for a story relating to him and Roma’s Chris Smalling.

“Instead of focusing on a battle between two teams… Corriere dello Sport comes with the most dumbest of headlines I have ever seen in my career,” his post began.

“You guys keep fuelling the negativity and the racism issue. Instead of talking about to the beautiful game that’s going to be played at San Siro between two great clubs..

“Education is key. You guys of Corriere dello Sport should do a better job at that..

“Thanks to all the fans and other journalists to hightlights for the support and let’s all look forward to tomorrow’s game. Forza Inter.”
