Inter striker Lautaro Martinez has decided to join Barcelona and won’t sign a contract renewal, but the Nerazzurri won’t let him leave cheap, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Spanish newspaper Mundo Deportivo.
The report details how the 22-year-old Argentine striker, who is contracted to the Nerazzurri until 2023, has chosen to accept Barcelona’s offer and wants to join the Catalan club in the summer.
He has refused to sign a contract renewal and understands the seriousness of Barcelona’s interest.
An agreement between the two parties hasn’t been reached yet but talks are well underway.

Inter have a plan, the report continues, as they don’t want to lose Lautaro for cheap, despite the current financial climate.
The Milanese club know that it would be tough to convince the Argentine forward to stay considering Barcelona’s high contract offer and the possibility of playing with Lionel Messi, and so instead will sell him for €90 million in cash plus one or two players in exchange.
