Racing Club president Victor Blanco has shared his belief that former player and current Inter striker Lautaro Martinez has what it takes to play for anyone.

The 22-year-old Argentine national team forward, who started his senior career at the Superliga Argentine side, has been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona ahead of the upcoming transfer window.

Talks have already taken place between the two clubs but as of yet no deal has been reached and the two clubs appear some way apart in negotiations.

“We still have no news regarding Lautaro. He has all that he needs to play for Barcelona or anywhere else he wants,” Blanco remarked in an interview with Argentine radio station Radio La Red earlier on today.

Lautaro, who has a contract with Inter until the end of the 2022/23 season, has become a regular starter this season at Inter and has struck up a solid partnership with Romelu Lukaku.

This season Lautaro has made 31 appearances across all competitions to date, in which he has scored 16 goals and provided four assists.
