Former Toffees striker Louis Saha believes Romelu Lukaku will learn a lot from Samuel Eto’o at Everton.
Everton signed the Belgian striker on a permanent deal this summer from Chelsea for a club record fee of £28m; he spent last season at Goodison Park on loan.
Toffees boss Roberto Martinez also signed Eto’o, another former Chelsea striker, to add experience and depth to the squad.
Saha praised Lukaku and said that he has the ability to become one of the top strikers in the world.
He also added that the Belgian could not have asked for a better man than Eto’o to partner him at Everton and feels that Lukaku will learn a lot from the former Barcelona and Inter hitman.
