The seven languages Lukaku can speak

He has claimed he also plays the role of 'translator' at Manchester United, thanks to his ability to speak seven languages. In an interview with 'BR Football', the Manchester United striker spoke about how useful this skill can be when in the Red Devils' dressing room.

One of his many spoken tongues is French, which allows him to communicate frely with the likes of Paul Pogba and Anthony Martial. He can, of course, also speak English, having lived in various parts of the country for the past few years.

He speaks Portuguese too, which means he can talk to central-midfielder Fred, and Spanish as well, which is the first language of David de Gea, Ander Herrera and Juan Mata.

But he's not limited to just these four languages. He also knows Dutch, German and Lingala. The latter is spoken in parts of Africa, and came in useful during his spell at Everton between 2014 and 2016, as it was also spoken by Yannick Bolasie.
