Romelu Lukaku, who is on his way to Manchester United from Everton, was arrested in Los Angeles on Saturday after an out of control rage at his Beverly Hills mansion. According to a report in TMZ, cops had to come to Lukaku's rented house six times after his neighbours got pissed off because of the noise from his massive day party.

The Belgian striker, though refused to tone down his ways and was eventually arrested for misdemeanour disturbing the peace. Lukaku wasn't brought to the police station or formally booked, but was merely given a citation.

Meanwhile, United have agreed a fee with Everton for the transfer Lukaku subject to medical and personal terms, the Premier League side said on Saturday.

"#MUFC is delighted to announce a fee has been agreed with Everton for the transfer of Romelu Lukaku, subject to a medical & personal terms," the club said on its verified Twitter feed. "A further announcement will be made in due course," it added.

British media reported that the fee for the 24-year-old would be around 75 million pounds ($96.68 million), making him the club's second most expensive signing after last year's world record deal for French midfielder Paul Pogba. Lukaku, who also attracted interest from former club Chelsea, scored 25 league goals in 37 matches for Everton in the last campaign, four behind Tottenham Hotspur's Golden Boot-winning striker Harry Kane.

The striker, who has also scored 20 goals for Belgium, rejected a new contract at Everton in March and will reunite with United manager Jose Mourinho, under whom he served at Chelsea.
