    Romelu Lukaku comes with a £60m price tag,  but there is already plenty of speculation about Lukaku's next move. , external

    The obvious club to splash out and throw the 23-year-old Belgian straight in the team would be his former side, Chelsea, if they were to sell Diego Costa.

    Lukaku has already said  he will not sign a new contract at Everton  and, if he does get an offer from Chelsea at the end of the season, then it would be a no-brainer - he has to do it.

    He would be Chelsea's main striker, playing in the Champions League and challenging for the title in a team which will give him lots of chances, which is exactly where he wants to be.

    A seven-point lead with eight games remaining is not a cast-iron guarantee of success, but it's hard to see the Blues straying from the blueprint which has taken them to the top.

    Don't forget that Antonio Conte won the championship with Juventus in each of his last three seasons as a club manager. The Italian knows his way around a run-in and will have delighted Chelsea by  brushing aside rumours, external  that he might decamp back to Serie A this summer.

    I was pretty concerned about Bournemouth a couple of months ago when it seemed they may be sucked into a relegation battle.

    Now that their defence is looking tighter - and Joshua King has embarked on a hot streak of nine goals in 10 games - improving on last season's 16th-place finish looks almost a certainty.
