Inter could be tempted to sell Lautaro Martinez after all in the summer, a Spanish journalist has claimed today.
Mundo Deportivo’s Francesc Aguilar said the Nerazzurri would be prepared to sit down and discuss a deal for their striker if somebody offered between €80-85 million.
Lautaro was once again linked with a move to Barcelona yesterday by Spanish radio station RAC1, who said the La Liga giants could look to exploit Inter’s ongoing financial troubles.
Despite this, Aguilar said El Toro was not the kind of striker Barca needed or were even looking for.
Lautaro is reportedly in line to sign a contract extension with Inter at some point before this summer, after successful negotiations between the club and his entourage earlier this year.
He has scored 16 goals and provided nine assists for the Nerazzurri this season, most recently scoring the winner in a 2-1 victory at Torino three weeks ago.
El Inter estaría dispuesto a traspasar a Lautaro Martínez (Rac1 informó de que el argentino volvía a interesar) pero pedirían entre 80 y 85 millones de euros para empezar a negociar. Y, aunque es un jugador muy interesante, no es el ‘nueve’ que busca y necesita el Barça.
