Milan: Italian coach Antonio Conte has made his "gentle giant" Romelu Lukaku the focus of Inter Milan's attack ahead of tonight's Champions league clash with Borussia Dortmund. The Belgian got off the mark in his first league match against Lecce and has since scored five goals in eight Serie A games since leaving Man United under a cloud last summer. Lukaku, 26, scored a brace last weekend against Sassuolo to keep Inter second in Serie A, one point behind defending champs Juventus, after eight games.

It followed his double as Belgium sealed their Euro 2020 ticket, extending his national all-time record to 51 goals in 83 appearances. Conte's side host Group F leaders Dortmund in their third Champions League game tonight, having been held 1-1 to Slavia Prague and losing 1-2 at Barcelona, with Lukaku missing the trip to Spain with a thigh injury.
