It means the Manchester United star has become the first Premier League star to sign with the US music king, The Sun reports.
It is likely Roc Nation will take care of his talent management and commercial opportunities.
The Sun revealed how Jay Z originally targeted Lukaku’s Old Trafford teammate Marcus Rashford.
But Lukaku, 24, was officially “welcomed to the family” during a trip to New York last month.
And now he has officially signed the deal, which will go down in history.
It was while he was in the Big Apple, while taking in a basketball game between the Brooklyn Nets and Chicago Bulls, that Lukaku, whose football agent is Mino Raiola, joined the team.
Jay Z’s Roc Nation Sports talent stable is an extension of his entertainment company Roc Nation, which counts chart-topping superstars such as Shakira and DJ Khaled among its ranks.
Also in the ranks is the likes of Golden State Warriors star Kevin Durant.
