Lautaro Martinez

[Eddie]

Sell him ASAP... since all the Farca talk started I knew he wouldn’t want to be here in the long term.

Hakimi can last at the club for at least a good 5 years.

 

[brakbrak]

Meh, I was hoping to sell Lukaku instead but if selling Lautaro means that we don't have to sacrifice Hakimi, I'll do it in a heartbeat. It's sad to see him go though as we'll see our pressing go downhill and he's shown before that he can score goals in CL.

 

[ADRossi]

Martinez makes the most sense to sell from an accounting standpoint. Low cost on our balance sheet. Selling him will produce a huge gain.

Words of Lautaro's agent

I thought that he is about to pen a new deal shortly?
In this case, maybe it's better to sell him now, even if it is for 70-80mln.

Guy is a cunt….

Hope we sell him and not sacrifice anyone else

 

[FCBarca]

FWIW, still want :greedy:

 

[Jnr]

We would want too, if we get Depay free and Lauti moves to Barca for Emerson Royal and say 70M euros.

Yeah I agree. Though I see quite possible that both will be gone.

70M and Emerson Royal would be fantastic deal. Sell then Hakimi and buy Raspadori and Locatelli.

There is some credibility to Emerson's involvement and no doubt Lautaro would be the target, been a lot of rumours in local press in Laporta's return to the market and so far he has kept them guessing. So, I get the impression there will be misdirection on many fronts all summer

I think it'll be a very active transfer window for European football

 

[Alex de Large]

With Aguero, impossible room for Lautaro, and even less with the 90mil he would cost.

 

[Choppin Onions]

70M and Emerson Royal would be fantastic deal. Sell then Hakimi and buy Raspadori and Locatelli.

Sounds like Locatelli is Juve bound unfortunately.

If we sell Lautaro, I’d go after Belotti. Similar work rate and generally good for around 15 goals or so per season. Decent assists numbers as well. Not as naturally talented as Lautaro but IMO he’d compliment Lukaku quite well.

Nonsense, Kun's arrival changes little with respect to an additional long-term #9

He also will not cost 90M

 

[Jnr]

Lautaro is destined to play for Barca until Messi still plays, but you're not getting him for 50M€ . You splashed 280M€ for flops like Dembele, Coutinho, all the probable deals are on our terms when Marotta is still here. If you insert a player we really want not like clowns like Firpo as 40M€ counterpart. Wtf were you thinking lol. That was hilarious.

 

[ADRossi]

Loan swap with Griezmann with Barca covering his wages, let's go

If he wants to go, let him go. We need to sell someone. Might as well sell the guy who doesn't want to be here over the super promising RB who just had the best season of an Inter fullback since Maicon.

 

[Candreva Crosses]

Nonsense, Kun's arrival changes little with respect to an additional long-term #9

If we are selling El Toro to Barca then it better cost more than 90M.

 

[CafeCordoba]

Barcelona is very close to sign Depay the free agent. When he signs, then Lautaro is out, regarding any move to Barcelona. As long as that signing is not done, Barcelona remains a possible destination.

The agents are probably fishing now. They are going to look for what's out there in the market. If Lautaro would get some offers and what kind of investments these clubs would be willing to do to get him. Inter is not going to sell for cheap. They will sign the extension eventually if there are no realistic targets for him. Barcelona 50m€ is not a realistic target.

 

[FCBarca]

Depay signing has no bearing on interest for Lautaro anymore than Kun does

Barca are also quite broke. I think Madrid or City are more likely destinations for him, but most likely he is staying here.

 

[IM21]

Gds - Inter wanna keep Lautaro.

 

[DARi0]

So here we go. Now these shenanigans start. As he's the agent of both Hakimi and Lautaro, I wouldn't be surprised seeing both of these guys sold eventually.

La Gazzetta dello Sport reports Barcelona are not open to matching Inter’s €90m asking price, with the Nerazzurri who prefer selling Hakimi rather than Lautaro.

If he wants to go, let him go. We need to sell someone. Might as well sell the guy who doesn't want to be here over the super promising RB who just had the best season of an Inter fullback since Maicon.

I rather think he wants more money, not necessarily to leave. Agree on the selling strategy, however the club might not think the same. Having top strikers has always been a priority for the club, having world class wing-backs less so, especially when it`s becoming a luxury we can hardly afford.


Lautaro Martinez reportedly wants at least €6m-a-year to sign a contract extension with Inter while Atletico, Real Madrid and Barcelona continue to monitor the Argentinean.

According to Calciomercato.com, the player and his entourage believe a €4.5m-a-year salary is not enough and demand at least €6m.

However, Inter’s €90m asking price does not reflect the €4.5m-a-year salary the club have offered to their striker.
