The agent of Lautaro Martinez is reportedly demanding an extremely high figure for the contract renewal.
In the coming days, a meeting is scheduled with Inter to discuss the significant matter of the day: Lautaro Martinez’s financial request to extend his contract, which expires in 2026.
The Argentine forward, who is also the captain of the Italian champions, is asking for an initial base salary of €12 million with incremental increases over the contract period.
“Lautaro expects to be compensated appropriately, considering his contributions and the current market,” said a source close to the negotiations, as reported by Gazzetta dello Sport.
Inter are keen to keep their star player but will need to find a balance that satisfies both parties.
The club’s representatives are likely to negotiate hard to lower the initial demands, aiming for a figure that fits within their financial framework.
“Lautaro is a key figure for the team, and we aim to find a solution that reflects his value while ensuring the club’s economic stability,” an Inter spokesperson was quoted as saying by Corriere dello Sport.
Fans will be eagerly watching this situation unfold, hoping their hero will remain with the club amidst the interest from other European giants.
