Lukaku was on the score-sheet during Tuesday's 2-1 loss to Fulham at the Hawthorns - his seventh goal of the season for the Midlands outfit.

Lukaku is on a season-long loan at the Hawthorns, but Chelsea do have the option of recalling the Belgium international.

"We haven't had any dialogue with Chelsea about Romelu. There is a period in January where they can recall him.

"Like I said before, we can't affect it, so I prefer not to talk about it," Clarke admitted to Sky Sports after the 2-1 loss to the Cottagers. "I've said all along that the squad I started the season with, I wanted to keep for the whole season.

"Rom is a part of that squad and, if we can keep him here, that would be great."
