I have seen him play against Ajax and Mouscron. He's a beast with a lot of pace and great technical skills for his length. Topteam material! Good back up for Ade.

Just found this while trying to find more information on him.

Wenger Sends Adams To Scout Anderlecht’s Lukaku

The globe trotting adventures of Arsenal’s newly appointed scout Tony Adams continued over the weekend as he made the trip to Belgium to watch R.S.C. Anderlecht at their Constant Vanden Stock Stadium.

He was present to make checks on exciting striker Romelu Lukaku who turned out for the home side. The 16-year-old 6 foot 3 inch striker posses a lethal strike rate at youth level and he’s now showing that form on a bigger stage. Four goals from seven fixtures for the Brussels based outfit has seen Lukaku become one of the most talked about prospects in his home land.

Lukaku, despite his tender age, is much travelled but performed notably for his former employers FC Brussels. 68 goals in 68 games for their youth team brought the attention of giants Anderlecht, and Romelu continued his exploits after penning a contract with them. 121 goals in 88 fixtures for the B team saw him promoted into the first team.

A current Belgian Under 21 International, the forward, who isn’t 17 until May, scored on his international debut against Slovenia. Lukaku will continue to represent Belgium despite being of Congo descent. The player’s family have issued a firm ‘hands off’ warning stating Romelu will stay with Anderlecht until he is at least 18, but with his rapid goal scoring rate there will be a real struggle to keep him away from the leading lights of European football.

Adams was reported to have been very impressed and will no doubt be making further checks on the striker in the coming weeks.

Watched him once earlier this season, looks like he could develop into a quality player, but very raw currently. One to keep an eye on for sure.

Would love a big target like that and it looks like he has great speed. Well beyond his years in size. I don't know much about him but his scoring record is impressive.

He's special for a 16year old. Took his goal really well last night. I hope we see MH at an Anderlecht game soon.
