New Manchester United signing Romelu Lukaku has said that he will settle for "nothing less" than trophies "every year" during his time at the club.

The 24-year-old completed his £75m switch from Everton yesterday in a deal which could eventually rise to a world-record sum of £90m, surpassing new teammate and long-time friend Paul Pogba as the most expensive player in football history.

Having expressed his delight at sealing the move to Old Trafford, Lukaku quickly set his sights on achieving silverware with the club on a consistent basis.

"I feel really well, I am really happy. Delighted. I can't wait to get started. Last year you guys won three trophies. Now we're starting to build on that and perform better than we did last year," he told MUTV.

"Titles every year. Nothing less. Nothing less. I think being at Manchester United, you have to challenge for every title that there is. Every cup or whatever.

"That's what I want and that's why I am here to help the team perform. I am not going to talk too much, but I am just going to perform on the pitch and do whatever it takes to win a game."

Lukaku will wear the number nine shirt at Old Trafford following the departure of Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
