Inter Milan will soon sit at the table with the representatives of Lautaro Martinez to begin concrete talks over the players’ contract renewal.

After inheriting the captain’s armband in the summer, the striker is enjoying a sensational start to the season.

The Argentine came off the bench last night to score a spot-kick against RB Salzburg. This proved the winner that secured the club’s qualification to the Champions League’s knockout stages.

The 2022 World Cup winner now has 14 goals to his name from 15 appearances across all competitions.

Yesterday’s strike was his second in Europe this season. He previously scored a pivotal equalizer against Real Sociedad.

While the captain’s contract runs until 2026, both parties would like to extend their collaboration and push the deadline further back.

According to Tuttosport via FcInter1908, Inter have scheduled a meeting with Lautaro’s agent Alejandro Camano.

The source expects Nerazzurri CEO Beppe Marotta and sporting director Piero Ausilio to meet the player’s representative towards the end of the month.

Camano has often voiced his client’s desire to remain at Appiano Gentile and become a club icon.

The Turin-based newspaper believes the two parties will take advantage of the international break to launch the much-anticipated contract negotiations.

The report expects Martinez to pen a new contract that will earn him 7.5 million euros per year in addition to bonuses.

Lautaro first joined the club as a young player in 2018. Slowly but surely he established himself as the main talisman at the club.
