Inter and Barcelona have agreed to include Junior Firpo in the deal for Argentine striker Lautaro Martinez but still must decide what to do with Samuel Umtiti, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Turin based newspaper Tuttosport.
The report details how the Blaugrana are incredibly keen to sign the 22-year-old Argentine striker, who is contracted to the Nerazzurri until 2023. The Catalan club believe that Lautaro would be the perfect replacement for the aging Luis Suarez but cannot afford to pay his €111 million release clause.
Both clubs have agreed to include Junior Firpo in the deal for Lautaro, the report continues, as Barcelona look to offer multiple players to Inter in order to lower the cash payment they’ll have to make.
Another player that could be included is 2018 World Cup winner Samuel Umtiti, but the Nerazzurri only want the player on a loan deal due to his long history of serious injuries, which have heavily impacted his career.
