Romelu Lukaku impressed on his Premier League debut for Manchester United, scoring a brace in their 4-0 hammering of West Ham on Sunday, August 13.
However, the Belgium striker could not break a Manchester United record jointly held by Ruud van Nistelrooy, Marcus Rashford and James Wilson, and could only match their achievement.
The aforementioned players netted twice on their Premier League debuts for the Old Trafford outfit.
Romelu Lukaku is the eighteenth Manchester United player to score on his Premier League debut.
The former Chelsea wonderkid also scored on his Premier League debut for West Bromwich Albion and Everton.
