Lautaro Martinez has held his first interview with Inter which was broadcast on Instagram’s new feature, Instagram TV.
Welcome, Lautaro. Are you happy and ready for this new adventure?
“In truth I am very happy, we were working for this, today everything is closed and I am very happy for this stage of my career that I will spend here.”
Did you follow Inter’s last season? What do you think you can give?
“Yes, of course I followed them. First of all I want to settle down and meet my teammates and coach, then I want to understand what I will be doing on the pitch, of course I’m ready to give my best for this shirt.”
What do you expect from Italian football?
“I expect to adapt quickly, for me it will be a new game, completely different from the Argentinian one, but I think the Serie A will be crucial to learn more and add new qualities to my game and help my teammates and play where the manager thinks he needs to play me. ”
You continue a tradition, that of the Argentines at Inter. You are an attacker like Icardi and Milito…
“I had the opportunity to share the locker room at Racing with Milito, so many times he told me what Inter means, then I spoke with Javier Zanetti too. I want to follow their path at this club.”
Have you received messages from your new fans?
“Yes, the truth is that since we started talking about my transfer, many fans started sending me messages on social media, and many were present at the airport and in front of the hotel, which can only make me happy, because it helps to get in touch with the environment very quickly, I want to repay this affection as soon as possible.”
Any words for the fans?
“I want to thank all those who have followed me and sent messages. I hope that this season we can get as high as possible, where this club deserves to be, I want to give my best for this shirt.”
