Inter Milan manager Cristian Chivu is reportedly keen to build a new winning era at San Siro around long-serving star Lautaro Martinez.
According to Il Messaggero via FCInterNews, El Toro remains central to Chivu’s project ahead of a summer overhaul.
Chivu’s first season at San Siro shapes up to be a major success.
Indeed, the Nerazzurri are close to winning their 21st Serie A title.
Furthermore, they’re potentially 90 minutes away from reaching a coveted Coppa Italia final.
As such, Cristian Chivu could win the domestic double, something Inter last achieved in 2010 under Jose Mourinho.
Nevertheless, the runaway Serie A leaders are likely to undergo a massive squad overhaul at the end of the season.
Inter Milan Plan to Build New Era Around Lautaro Martinez
Stefan de Vrij, Francesco Acerbi, Matteo Darmian, Yann Sommer, and Henrikh Mkhitaryan are on the verge of leaving the club.
Indeed, they’ve entered the final few months of their contracts at Giuseppe Meazza, with Inter unwilling to renew their deals.
Furthermore, the Nerazzurri could also sever ties with Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Marcus Thuram, Davide Frattesi, and Andy Diouf.
Therefore, Beppe Marotta is busy scouring the market for reinforcements.
However, Lautaro Martinez remains untouchable, set to form the cornerstone of Inter’s new project
