Roberto Martinez has made signing the Belgian his top priority of the summer and is looking increasing like landing his man possibly in the next 48 hours.
Martinez, who had considered Demba Ba as an alternative but could not agree his £80,000 a week personal terms, will have pulled off a major coup if he persuades the 21-year-old Belgian to sign.
It is understood that extensive preparations have been made for his return with Everton due to return from their training camp in Austria tonight.
Lukaku was expected to sign for Atletico Madrid but it became apparent that he was not the first choice for coach Diego Simeone.
Wolfsburg have also shown a strong interest as have Tottenham but Lukaku enjoyed his time at Goodison and is willing to help Everton push for a Champions League place.
Martinez has held talks with Monaco over a return loan for 6ft 8ins striker Lacina Traore also and is well on in negotiations for Bosnia midfielder Muhamed Besic, 21, of Ferencvaros.
