Chelsea loanee Lukaku coy on future plans with Everton, Spurs linked
Romelu Lukaku insists he is not thinking about his future beyond the end of the season as he bids to help Everton to a Champions League place.
The 20-year-old striker is due to see out the season at Goodison Park having completed a loan switch from Chelsea last summer.
He has enjoyed a productive 2013-14 campaign, netting 14 times in all competitions.
The latest of those came in a crucial 3-0 victory over Arsenal which lifted Everton to within a point of the Champions League places.
Roberto Martinez's side still hold a game in hand on the fourth-placed Gunners, suggesting a return to European football's top table could be on the cards, and Lukaku is determined to ensure that he signs off this summer having left a lasting impression on the blue half of Merseyside.
He told the Liverpool Echo: "For me that's my ambition, that's why I play football now - to make history and leave my mark wherever I go.
"At this moment, that's my drive. I'm a fierce competitor and I want to win every game on the run-in.
"I've said since I came back from my injury I'll do anything that I can to help the club qualify for the Champions League and do well in the cup.
"We didn't succeed in winning the (FA) Cup, but in the league I think we're all good."
Were Everton to break into the top four, Martinez would be expected to step up his efforts to land Lukaku on a permanent basis.
The Belgium international is, however, reluctant to speculate on what the summer transfer window may bring, with his focus locked on the end of the current campaign and a World Cup adventure in Brazil.
He added: "I'm trying not to look too far ahead for now.
"I'm still two years under contract at one of the biggest clubs in the world.
"This is a team that is growing and for me, I just want to help Everton instead of thinking about myself and the next step.
"There are so many things on the horizon - like big games against Man United and City, then the World Cup - so I have to give it a place in my head but not focus on it.
"For now, it's just helping Everton finish fourth and then we'll see."
