Inter Milan captain Lautaro Martinez insists that the Romelu Lukaku chapter is behind now, proving it with action on the pitch.
The Nerazzurri star is enjoying a stellar start to the campaign. He has already bagged five goals in the first three rounds of the Serie A season.
For now, the 26-year-old is hellbent on leading his side on the pitch and putting all the drama that ensued in the summer behind him.
As we all know, Lautaro enjoyed a great understanding on and off the pitch with Lukaku, especially during the latter’s original stint at the club.
Nevertheless, the Belgian turned his back on his Nerazzurri teammates at one point during the summer. He refused to answer all of their calls while news sources were linking him to Juventus. In the end, the 30-year-old joined Roma on loan from Chelsea.
According to Il Corriere dello Sport via FcInterNews, Lautaro is eager to close this chapter. His actions on the pitch spoke louder than words.
During last Sunday’s 4-0 hammering of Fiorentina, Marcus Thuram tried to recreate the celebration of the so-called “LuLa” duo.

However, the Argentine’s answer was swift and sharp, rejecting the proposal by waving his finger.
Moreover, Martinez had already unfollowed his old friend and teammate Lukaku on Instagram as the source explains.
The report explains that the Inter captain doesn’t necessarily blame the Belgian for choosing a different path, but was irked by the manner in which he conducted himself during that dramatic summer saga.
