Everton striker Romelu Lukaku has described rumours linking him with a move to Chelsea as "BS".

The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with a departure from Goodison Park following his apparent refusal to sign a new Toffees deal.

On Saturday, Lukaku posted a video on his Instagram in which he and a group of friends are playing five-a-side football in Los Angeles.

The short clip set tongues wagging because the pitch was surrounded by hoardings bearing the Chelsea crest, but the Belgium international suggested that this was not a cryptic hint as to his next transfer move.

Lukaku wrote on Twitter: "Smh... hearing all this BS again... its just a 5 a side game people! Some of you need to chill. @us5center is where I played #GetYourFactsStraight..."

The forward, who was on Chelsea's books between 2011 and 2014, finished second in the Premier League goalscoring charts last season with 25 goals from 37 appearances.
