Everton boss Roberto Martinez brushes aside claims Romelu Lukaku could be sold

Everton manager Roberto Martinez has refused to comment on claims that the club would be open to selling striker Romelu Lukaku.

The Belgium international's agent Mino Raiola recently stated that the Merseyside club would consider offloading the player if a "good offer" came in.

When asked about the claims in this morning's press conference, Martinez told reporters: "I'm not here to try and do the job of an agent, our focus is this weekend. I feel Romelu is in a perfect moment to take even more responsibility on the pitch."

Lukaku has netted five of the Toffees' 13 Premier League goals this season.
