DBasia.news – Beto Yaque, as the agent of Lautaro Martinez, confirmed Barcelona’s interest in Martinez. Even so, Martinez will remain at Inter Milan. In addition, Yaque also tempted Lionel Messi to join Inter.
Barcelona, before recruiting Antoine Griezmann, were reportedly interested in recruiting Martinez from the Nerazzurri. The 21-year-old striker is considered the ideal striker to replace Luis Suarez, who is 33 years old.
However, Inter did not want to release Martinez and only wanted to sell Mauro Icardi, whose rumored to be replaced by Romelu Lukaku. Yaque also gave a statement regarding the commitment of the former Racing Club striker.
“Lautaro Martinez will not leave Inter and he can’t wait to start working with (Antonio) Conte,” Yaque said, quoted from the Goal.
“Obviously, being praised by the world’s best players is great and very satisfying. Lautaro is very thrilled to get praise from Leo Messi and that makes him want to work harder to reach the target.”
“Nevertheless, Lautaro is only thinking of Inter. He is content with the Nerazzurri and has big dreams. Conte has contacted him to explain his method of work and will obviously rely on him.”
Messi likes to play with his compatriots and the two players work together solidly in the Argentine national team. Yaque also gives his advice. Rather than Martinez who is in Barcelona, it is better for Messi to come to Inter.
“It’s true, there is interest from the Blaugrana for Martinez, even though none of the clubs have contacted us officially. There are rumors that are untrue, but I repeat, Lautaro stays at Inter,” Yaque added
“How about this: if Messi wants to play with Martinez, then he can come to Inter,” he concluded.
