Inter striker Lautaro Martinez has said he agrees to join Barcelona but still plans to keep his promise to coach Antonio Conte, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Milano based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.
The report details how the 22-year-old Argentine forward has accepted a move to the Catalan giants but isn’t planning to go easy in the final games of the season. On the contrary, Lautaro intends to keep his promise to Conte to giving his absolute best for Inter and still looking to guide the club to a strong finish.
Barcelona’s offer still hasn’t satisfied Inter, the report continues. The 22-year-old has a release clause of €111 million release clause, but the Catalan club cannot afford to pay this figure.
Instead, they have reached an agreement with the Nerazzurri to include Junior Firpo in the deal, but they must still pay €90 million. Should the Blaugrana fail to make a convincing offer by the 7th July, the day that Lautaro’s release clause expires, the Milanese club could still offer the player a new contract in August.
