And it's a move Papin approves of, telling La Gazzetta dello Sport: "About Lukaku, I said Milan needs a striker like that, to replace (Olivier) Giroud.
"Lukaku fights for the team."
Papin also backed a move for AS Monaco midfielder Youssouf Fofana.
He added, "I studied Fofana in (Adi) Hutter's Monaco: he does an incredible job in the manner of (N'Golo) Kanté. Hutter made him become a midfielder who covers many metres of the pitch, between one area and another."
