Inter Milan 'want to renew Lautaro Martinez's contract', his agent reveals

Lautaro Martinez could be set for a new deal at Inter Milan after a stunning start to the season with the Nerazzurri.

The Argentine has had an impressive 18 months in Milan, winning the Italian Cup and Super Cup as well as lifting the World Cup with Argentina in Qatar as well as the Finalissima.

Having played a key role in winning Serie A in 2020-21, he then helped Simone Inzaghi's side to the Champions League final last term, beating arch-nemesis AC Milan in the semis but falling to a 1-0 loss to Manchester City.

Now, though, he could be set for another contract at the San Siro despite still having another three years left on his current deal at the club following an electric start to the Serie A season.

'We have a great relationship with the Nerazzurri. And we're talking about getting together to talk about Lautaro's renewal,' his agent Alejandro Camano told FCInterNews.

'Inter want to renew Lautaro's contract. And we want to extend. There will be no problems. We'll see each other in the next few days or weeks.'

But when asked whether a concrete date had been arranged for discussions, he added: 'No, not yet. We have to reach an agreement with Inter. But the important thing is that there is a willingness on both sides to sit down and discuss the renewal.'

Martinez has already rocketed to the front of the Golden Boot race in the Italian top-flight, leading the way from cross-town rival Olivier Giroud and last year's winner Victor Osimhen.

With 11 in 10 games, as well as an assist, he is currently averaging 1.22 goals per game, with 74 minutes per goal and a shot accuracy of an impressive 60 per cent.

As such he has become a pivotal part of the project at Inter - a project that the player is very much enamoured with, according
