the news everyone was waiting for

Lautaro Martinez is shining in the Copa America but not only the Argentines are rejoicing: the Nerazzurri fans will also finally be able to celebrate soon.

In last night’s match Lautaro Martinez scored a brace against Peru. El Toro is currently the top scorer of the Copa America and is dragging his Argentina. A piece of news that certainly makes Simone Inzaghi happy: a Nerazzurri number 10 who is so decisive also on the international stage can become an even more fundamental factor in view of the Champions League and Club World Cup. The Club World Cup which, among other things, will be played in the exact same US stadiums as the Copa America.

But what interests Nerazzurri fans is certainly the renewal question. When will the captain sign? When will the Argentine striker’s black and blue extension arrive? Today’s edition of the La Gazzetta dello Sport takes stock of the situation.

Lautaro renewal: everything ready for the signature, when will it happen?

Lautaro Martinez’s contract is sealed and ready to be signed: 9 million euros plus bonuses per season until 2029. After weeks of uncertainty, Toro has decided to tie himself to Inter for life and to extend his contract with the team he captains. It seemed that the Nerazzurri captain and Inter were unable to meet halfway to continue together. Days of anxiety for the Italian champions’ fans, fortunately culminating with some good news: Lauti wants Inter and wants to continue with the Nerazzurri for many more seasons.

So only the formalities are missing: The Argentine’s signature will arrive soon, very soon, probably even by the end of the Copa America. So a matter of just a few weeks now. A final piece to formalize the marriage between the parties and make the Inter fans go crazy with joy. After the Scudetto, Inter will try to become protagonists abroad again. Between the new Champions League and the new Club World Cup there will certainly be no shortage of opportunities.

The new international competitions will also be a stimulus for Lautaro: in the Champions League he never went beyond 5 goals scored in the 2019-20 season, not even in the last one, which ended in the final in Istanbul. The only thing the Bull is missing is to fully establish itself on the international stage. The current Copa America could finally be a springboard to then lead his Inter to brilliant results on the international stage. Simone Inzaghi is ready to welcome his captain to Appiano, perhaps with one more Copa America in his trophy cabinet.
