Italian pundit Mario Sconcerti has heaped praise on Inter new boy Lautaro Martinez by labelling him the player of the summer.

“If you are looking to find the player of the summer you can find him in Lautaro Martinez. Some time has passed since we saw a striker this physical and so in love with himself, an innocent form of narcissism who doesn’t need the world, capable of only giving,” Sconcerti said of Lautaro in an interview with Corriere della Sera.

“We will have to spend time watching him and we will all have to understand, but Lautaro’s traits are the best, they are the ones that change clubs. Think of an Inter able to put both him and Icardi together up top. Football has the same faults of geometry, you study it for life and then discover that someone has invented something else, This is Spalletti’s football, which is very technical, he chases those he has already had, he doesn’t chase something which needs to be invented.”
