- Lukaku was seen cuddling up to Megan at Lautaro Martinez’s wedding in Italy
- The pair have sent social media into a frenzy after being pictured together
- Fans were quick to joke that Lukaku will be even more eager to impress vs City
Romelu Lukaku has sparked dating rumours after being spotted with American rapper Megan Thee Stallion – and fans are convinced it spells trouble for Man City in the Champions League final.
Lukaku, who has helped Inter reach the final after returning to the club on loan from Chelsea last summer, seemingly rocked up at team-mate Lautaro Martinez‘s wedding in Italy over the weekend with Megan by his side.
The pair were seen holding hands and cuddling up to each other as Martinez tied the knot with model Agustina Gandolfo in Lake Como, sending social media into a frenzy.
And ahead of Inter’s crucial showdown with City in Istanbul on June 10, fans believe Lukaku will now have added motivation to shine on the big stage with his potential new love interest watching on.
One posted a photo of the Belgian striker and Megan together and wrote: ‘Lukaku and Megan Thee Stallion were also holding hands together?! Yeah it’s over for you @ManCity’.

Fans believe it spells trouble for Pep Guardiola’s Man City in the Champions League final
Another commented: ‘Romelu Lukaku promising Meghan Thee stallion that Manchester City won’t beat them, City fans you better be ready’.
A third put: ‘Married Lautaro Martínez and Romelu Lukaku wanting to impress Megan Thee Stallion. Man City are not leaving the final in one piece’.
One Manchester United supporter, desperate for Inter to stop City from matching their historic 1998-99 Treble-winning campaign, joked: ‘I’ve been a Megan Thee Stallion fan for years now, I love her work and I’ve watched her music videos. If there’s one woman on this planet I trust to motivate Romelu Lukaku for a champions league final against Man City it’s her’.
Another user tweeted a video of Pep Guardiola with his head in his hands while referencing Brazilian legend Ronaldo: ‘Pep looking at Megan Thee Stallion entering the stands knowing now Lukaku is gonna move like Prime R9 in the UCL final’.
While it is unclear where Lukaku met the Houston-based artist, they are both signed to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation management. Megan was also seen attending an Inter’s 3-1 win over Lazio on April 30.
Lukaku recently split with Belgian model Sarah Mens – who he dated for five years – according to Marca.
Fans were quick to joke that City now stand no chance against a motivated Lukaku, while one United supporter (above) expressed hope that she will inspire him to end their rivals’ Treble bid
He was previously linked romantically to Belgian fitness guru Julia Vandenweghe after being pictured together in 2014.
The 30-year-old will hope to play some part in Inter’s clash with City in just over one week’s time, having been forced to settle for a place on the bench in both legs of their semi-final against rivals AC Milan.
City are the heavy favourites to prevail in Istanbul after winning the Premier League this season, with Inter only managing a third-place finish in Serie A.
The English club are also contesting the FA Cup final this weekend against neighbours United, who will be aiming to thwart their bid for a famous Treble.
