Wouldn't a professional athlete train anyway?
If it was with the Man Utd team it would be more of a story from the Daily Mail.

Paul Joyce is saying £90m in his article tomorrow. I'd like to keep Lukaku, but I think that boat has sailed, so if Rooney comes in, great. We'll need more Strikers though. 90M is a hell of a lot of money which we can reinvest into the squad. We would need a few strikers to spread the goals around. We've had 4 years of Lukaku and from day one he's blabbed on about leaving so I've never had any affinity with him. I have a problem with selling your best, and re-investing, and I'll explain my logic: I was once had a very expensive guitar, and everybody loved it. I was offered 2 expensive guitars and an amp for it, which seemed a great deal, so I excepted, but when I played the 2 guitars and used the amp, it just wasn't the same. It gave me a bigger collection, and more options, just like more squad players, but I no longer had that quality guitar, just like Everton will no longer have that quality player. In hindsight, I should have kept the quality guitar.

Manchester United close in on £100m Lukaku deal after seeing off Chelsea• Belgian will cost £75m plus £15m in add-ons after Chelsea’s hijack bid fails • Wayne Rooney, notionally valued at around £10m, will return to Everton Manchester United believe they have deflected Chelsea’s frantic attempts to hijack Romelu Lukaku’s proposed move to Old Trafford and are set to confirm the Belgian’s signing in a deal valued at £100m, which would also incorporate Wayne Rooney’s return to Goodison Park. Lukaku is understood to have undertaken a medical at the UCLA campus in Los Angeles, where he has been on holiday with his friend and future club-mate, Paul Pogba. United hope to announce the transfer on Saturday, with the player to meet up with his new team-mates in the city on Sunday when they touch down to begin a five-match pre-season tour of the United States. The deal will be worth an initial £75m plus a further £15m of easily attainable add-ons linked to achievements and appearances. Rooney, who is notionally valued at around £10m, would also return to Merseyside after a glittering 13-year career at United, swelling the whole value of the deal on the table to nine figures. Chelsea had tabled their own offer for Lukaku’s services, seeking to re-sign a player they had sold for £28m in 2014. Yet, while the Premier League champions felt their proposal was roughly equivalent to that on offer from Old Trafford, Everton disagreed, with the Rooney element complicating the process. While the former England captain and United’s record goalscorer was never formally considered to be returning to Goodison Park in part-exchange, his valuation had in effect been built into the Lukaku deal, pushing the overall value of United’s offer to the £100m Everton had always been seeking for the 24-year-old striker. The London club could not provide the same Rooney element in their own proposal and were clearly unwilling to inflate their bid to meet Everton’s overall valuation. Even by Friday night, however, Chelsea had feared Lukaku’s representative, Mino Raiola, was intent on pushing his client towards Old Trafford, where he successfully moved Pogba, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Zlatan Ibrahimovic last summer. The London club, when submitting their bid, had indicated they were unprepared to match the agent fee – apparently amounting to eight figures – on offer to Raiola from United and, instead, felt as if they had presented Lukaku with a simple choice: push to join the club for whom he had initially been so anxious to play again, albeit against his agent’s financial interest; or sign for United in the knowledge Raiola will secure a bigger fee from the deal. The player, it seems, has opted for the latter. Antonio Conte, who had targeted Lukaku as his first-choice replacement for the outgoing Diego Costa, will be infuriated by his club’s failure to complete a deal, though, while his exasperation was initially made clear to the Chelsea hierarchy, his ire is now increasingly directed at Raiola and Lukaku. The champions must now decide whether to reignite their long-standing interest in Real Madrid’s Álvaro Morata – who had previously been targeted by United – or bid for the Torino forward, Andrea Belotti, whose buy-out clause is set at £87m. There is interest, too, in Arsenal’s Alexis Sánchez though the hierarchy at the Emirates stadium would be reluctant to lose the Chilean to rivals from across the capital. Conte has been frustrated to date with his team’s progress in the transfer market, but the champions are close to confirming the arrival of Tiemoué Bakayoko from Monaco, and Antonio Rüdiger from Roma with both players due to undertake medicals.
