Inter bound Lautaro Martinez has confirmed that he will join the Nerazzurri right away following the club’s qualification for next season’s Champions League.

“Inter qualified for the Champions League next season and wanted me right away. This decision closes my chapter with Racing and starts the one with Inter. The Nerazzurri’s Champions League qualification decided everything,” the Argentine starlet revealed to Sportia.

The 20-year-old was greeted at the airport by many Inter fans before he underwent his Inter medical on Friday and he admitted that he must use this to his advantage.

“Everything was very nice on Friday. The meeting with all the fans who started calling my name was really nice. I have to take advantage of this affection and gain confidence and start this adventure in the best way possible.”

Martinez scored no less than 17 goals in 25 appearances for Racing Club this term and has earned himself comparisons to some of world football’s top strikers as a result.
