“They won’t get rid of me yet.” Lautaro Martines vowed to finish his career at Inter. The captain of the “nerazzurri” team has put an end to all the speculation regarding his transfer. In an exclusive interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, Lautaro Martines said that he plans to play for the Milan club until the end of his professional career. “I’m extremely happy here, and I can’t imagine myself playing for another team,” admitted the Argentine forward.
His emotional statement, “If they don’t get rid of me, I’ll stay here forever,” seems to be a clear signal to the market. Lautaro Martines, who has become one of the symbols of this club’s modern era, has already achieved success in Milan, including winning the Scudetto, Coppa Italia, and the Champions League. Now, he wants to solidify his status as a legend of Giuseppe Meazza’s club.
For Inter’s sporting management, this statement is of strategic importance. Keeping the captain and the best striker means reducing the pressure of transfer windows, allowing for long-term plans to be made around this reliable player. The negotiations for a new contract, judging from the player’s tone, are in a constructive phase.
Lautaro has made it clear that his football career is closely linked to Inter’s colors. It’s still necessary to wait for an official extension of the contract, which will legally confirm one of Europe’s best forwards’ loyalty to his club.
