Hernan Crespo has sung the praises of current Inter striker and fellow Argentine Lautaro Martinez following the 21-year-old’s recent performances.

“Lautaro does impressive things and, above all, he knows how to always find himself in the right place at the right time,” he remarked in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport.

“He has already learned all about the defences of Italian teams, he does not let himself get intimidated and he plays with courage and personality.

“We also need to keep in mind that he started to become a starting player during a not so easy period for Inter with all the controversy around Icardi and what followed.

“He is not a striker like me, nor is he like Icardi,” Crespo continued.

“Now he is playing alone, he does not show that he is troubled and he has adapted very well.

“Lautaro has the potential to be a top player.”
