It’s nothing new, but Manchester United and Manchester City are interested in Lautaro Martínez.
We say it’s nothing new because we’ve covered it a couple of times in the past, sometimes with both clubs together or simply with a claim of one of them being after the Argentinian striker.
It’s understandable, after all, since Manchester City will need to replace Sergio Agüero at some point in the near future and Manchester United need some help up front, and Martínez is having his breakout season in Serie A.
Scoring 13 goals in 19 games, including five in five in the Champions League, the 22-year-old has paired up magnificently with Romelu Lukaku and is thriving under Antonio Conte.
Corriere dello Sport bring it back up on Wednesday, claiming the Argentine ‘intrigues’ both Pep Guardiola’s and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s clubs, and they are both alongside Barcelona in the queue of sides ‘courting’ him.
However, to get any chance of signing Martínez, a lot of money will need to be spent, as the youngster currently has a €110m release clause.
With Inter not exactly in need of money, there is no need for them to sell, so that figure will likely stand as his value in their eyes until it’s met, at least for now.
