Inter Milan center-forward Lautaro Martinez has rightfully won the 2023/24 Serie A MVP award.
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, it was a fitting reward for the Argentine’s incredible form for club and country last season.
Lautaro Martinez won the Serie A Golden Boot last term, bagging 24 goals in 33 league appearances.
In doing so, El Toro laid the foundation for Inter’s 20th Scudetto.
However, Martinez’s formidable form translated to the international stage.
Indeed, he was the 2024 Copa America top scorer as Argentina defended their title in the North America-held tournament.
All that earned him high acclaim from fans, experts, and teammates alike, cementing his place as one of the best players in world football.

Despite the abovementioned achievements, Martinez fell short in the Ballon d’Or race.
He unfathomably had to settle for a gut-wrenching seventh place.
In addition, FIFA refused to include the 27-year-old in the shortlist for ‘The Best Men’s Player’ award.
However, Serie A had no choice but to hand Martinez a well-deserved honor.
Indeed, Martinez was in a league of his own last season.
Juventus’ Dusan Vlahovic netted eight goals fewer than the Inter talisman, testifying to Martinez’s sterling contribution.
