Manchester United star player Juan Mata believes Romelu Lukaku is a superb player.
The Belgium international recently scored his 100th premier league goal after Manchester United beat Swansea City 2-0 last Saturday in the English top flight.
Romelu, who scored in the fifth minute of the clash at Old Trafford, is now among the 27 players who have gone beyond 99 premier league goals.
And his teammate at the theatre of dreams Juan Mata believes the Belgian striker is an ‘exceptional’ talent.
Writing in his blog, the Spaniard congratulated the former Everton striker for reaching the landmark.
At the age of 24, Lukaku has been able to join the group of 27 players with over 100 premier league goals. And Mata insists Lukaku was able to achieve such feat at such age because he is a great goalscorer.

Amid challenges and criticism, the Belgian striker has scored 15 top-flight games for the red devils this season so far.
Juan is happy Lukaku is a productive player who has not only score goals but also contributed to games in other areas.
The 24-year-old has more years ahead to set new records before thinking about hanging his boots.
