Soccer star Lukaku busted in California at loud party
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. – Soccer star Romelu Lukaku is in trouble for raucous partying in California.
Lukaku, 24, was arrested at a house he was staying at in Beverly Hills after officers warned him five times to turn down the music at a party, police said Saturday.
The striker from Belgium plays for Everton in the Premier League, but Manchester United is trying to sign him to a $97 million (75 million) transfer deal.
It’s not clear why Lukaku was in the Los Angeles area, but Manchester United plays the LA Galaxy in a preseason exhibition next weekend.
Lukaku was not handcuffed or booked July 2 when he was cited for the misdemeanour of excessive noise, Sgt. Jay Kim said.
He had 25 league goals last season and was the second-highest scorer in the Premier League.
Lukaku was scheduled to appear in Los Angeles Superior Court on Oct. 2.
