Romelu Lukaku expects to finalise a move away from Everton before the start of Euro 2016 next month.
The Everton striker's father Roger, himself a former player, confirmed that the club want £65million for the Belgium international should he be sold this summer.
Manchester United, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus have all held discussions with Lukaku's agent, Mino Raiola, after the 23-year-old indicated he wanted to move to a club with a greater chance of playing regular European football.

Juventus, though, are unlikely to be able to meet Everton's valuation.
Talking to Belgian publication, Humo, Lukaku Snr said: 'Everton are asking around £65m for Rom. I think a transfer will be done before the Euros.
'Romelu will decide his future, but agents have the last word most of the time. I hope and I think Mino Raiola is an honest man.

'Now, with Romelu it will be quickly arranged. Whether the transfer has been sorted? Almost. I think it will be in place before the European Championship.
'He won't go to Italy, because they keep it closed at the back, too difficult for an attacker.
'What is certain, to continue to make progress, he needs to change clubs, but we are mainly engaged in making the right choice.'
Lukaku scored 25 goals in the most recent season and is under contract until 2019.
Everton do not wish to sell but accept they have fallen short of his ambitions and expect him to agitate for a move unless they recruit a manager of substance who can persuade him to stay.
Belgium begin their Euro 2016 Group E fixtures against Italy on June 13.
In March Lukaku threw his Everton future into doubt when he declared he wants to be playing in the Champions League next season.
'I'm 23 next summer and it would be nice to play in the Champions League next season,' Lukaku said. 'I'm really looking for me to measure myself against the absolute top players.'
Lukaku made the comments just days after his father, Roger, had said: 'I see that there is interest from Atletico Madrid, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Chelsea and Manchester United. He's ready.
‘I know his agent prefers Italy, but in my eyes Rom has to join Bayern or Manchester United. United are a team under construction with no real focus.'
