Romelu Lukaku's agent has rubbished any notion of the player jumping the Everton ship in the winter transfer window, despite links with Serie A champions Juventus.
Lukaku, who became a deadline-day loan signing for Everton from Chelsea, has already found favour with Toffees staff and fans, with four league goals in five games,
Juventus became heavily linked thanks to a recent report that Lukaku had switched his management to that of Mino Raiola, who boasts clients such as Mario Balotelli and Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
However, Lukaku's agent Christophe Henrotay has today insisted the management switch rumours are false, whilst denying any possible move to Italy for his client.

"The rumours that there are chances for him to leave Everton in January are totally false", Henrotay told Belgian daily DH.
"There is no chance that he will leave Everton where he plays on loan from Chelsea.
"I would like to take this opportunity to point out that I am Romelu's agent. It is not true that he has changed from me to Mino [Raiola]. It all started from that fake Instagram account."
Lukaku spent last season on loan at West Bromwich Albion, but was hoping to find a regular spot under new Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho.
However, with Chelsea signing players such as Samuel Eto'o up front, Mourinho insists he had no other option but to allow the temporary switch to Merseyside.
