Lautaro Martinez could sign new Inter deal, talks Lionel Messi, FC Barcelona

6

Lautaro Martinez spoke about playing alongside Lionel Messi with Argentian and his failed move to Barcelona as he gets closer to signing a contract extension with Inter.

Martinez was constantly rumored to be joining Barcelona last year and Inter were even one of the team’s who were reportedly interested in signing Lionel Messi. Both transfers didn’t happen but Lautaro did comment about them. Speaking with FC Inter 1908 and translated by Sempre Inter, here’s what he had to say about Lionel Messi’s failed move to Inter last year:

“It would have been dream for me if he’d joined. Playing with him is great as Messi is the best player in the world. I am happy to be able to play with him in the national team.“We young people look up to and listen to him.”

Still only 23 years old, the Argentine spoke about the pressure that’s on him and his failed move to Barcelona:

“It’s hard to deal with. If I go out to eat somewhere, I hear people talking about me. The same happens when I go to the bathroom. I have to be very strong mentally.”

Inter CEO Marotta recently spoke to Dazn where he mentioned that the club is discussing with Lautaro Martinez to extend his contract with a decision in the coming months.

  2. Montiel signs a contract extension for River until December 2022. This helps a lot so that he won’t leave on a free in the summer. On more river news, there are rumors that Sosa is going to Atlanta United. Some sources say it’s confirmed and some sources say it is not conclusive yet. Either way this would be a terrible move. I believe Sosa has a future in Europe and may even be able to reach the national team if he progresses well. Enzo Perez is 34, Ponzio is even older than that, and Fernandez is 31 and may leave, so this move would be stupid for him as he is almost guaranteed to replace them and do it well. He was even linked with Everton a few months back. I am sick of these average MlS clubs preying on our players, and also sick of Donofrio letting people leave like this. If it were not for the Gallardo era that has masked his problems, Donofrio would definitely not be chairman anymore.

  4. By now Mourinho must be sorely missing the presence of Lo Celso in the middle. This Tottenham team looks really clueless in the middle without him

    • True!
      He is more important than anybody.
      Ndombele has few sparks but he is not effective in controlling midfield. Son has good goal scoring capacity but he cant create.

  5. Argentina’s best young center backs are
    1 Christian Romero
    2 Juan Foyth (RCB or RB)
    3 F. Medina(LCB)
    4 LMQ(RCB)
    Recently F. Medina was looking a beast he is the toughest CB like Marcos Rojo. Now he is wanted by Man United.But Medina can only play good in left side only because he is too much dependent on his left leg for passing and crossing. He is the fastest among the four. He has the strongest physicality among four.

    Foyth is good in Right side he is too good in long balls and through balls good in air too. He is 2nd fastest among four.Good in interception and in tackling, an intelligent player knows the game well.

    C. Romero plays 3 man back line do not know how he going to play in Argentina 4 man backline.He is good in almost everything. 3rd fastest among four.

    LMQ is good in passing but weak in physicality he goes down to the floor too often.But looks like stable player, he is slowest among four. But has good vision of the game.
