Inter striker Lautaro Martinez is now valued at €100 million, and he would have absolutely no intention of leaving the Nerazzurri despite transfer interest.
This according to Italian broadcaster SportMediaset, who report that the Argentine is seen as the “face of the club” by President Steven Zhang, and there would be great reluctance to let him go for anything less than a triple-digit sum.
Martinez has been linked with a number of Europe’s top clubs since joining the Nerazzurri in the summer of 2018, with Barcelona and Atletico Madrid persistent links whilst big Premier League clubs such as Manchester United, Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, and Arsenal have all shown interest.
However, the Nerazzurri have never been convinced by any offers for the 25-year-old, and he has remained at the club where his value has only risen over his time at the club.
Now, after convincing Martinez to sign a long-term contract last fall that makes him one of the Nerazzurri’s highest earners, club President Steven Zhang sees Martinez as a key player to build around for the future, and for his part the Argentine has no intention of going anywhere.
