Priced at 100 Million Euros, Barca Cancel Recruit Lautaro Martinez
By db-admin
DBasia.news – Spanish league giants Barcelona consider Lautaro Martinez as Luiz Suarez’s perfect heir. However, Barca reportedly decided to withdraw from the hunt for the Inter Milan player because it is priced at 100 million euros for his players.
The Spanish league champion is looking for a long-term replacement for Suarez who will turn 33 in January and has revealed to Barcelona to prepare a replacement since a year ago.
Antoine Griezmann was recruited last summer at a price of 120 million euros with the thought he was put to fill the depths in the middle. But so far coach Ernesto Valverde installed it on the left-wing so the club still needs specialist number 9.
Lautaro (22) has been monitored by Barca since this player defended Racing de Avellaneda, but his good performance on the European scene has raised the price of this player.
Barca believes, outside of Kylian Mbappe who will not be released by Paris Saint-Germain, Lautaro is the ideal replacement for Suarez.
But they decided to look for alternatives because according to a source, Inter put a high price for the player when Barcelona did not have many funds.
For that reason, because it is also difficult to repatriate Neymar next summer, Barca will look throughout Europe and South America in accordance with its budget.
One player who continues to be watched by Barcelona is FC Salzburg’s Norwegian player, Erling Haaland. But this player was ruled out because he was more looking for players with profiles like Suarez.
