Lionel Messi will surely leave FC Barcelona at the end of the current season. That is almost an unavoidable truth. The good news for the fans is that him has already recommended someone as his successor someone who the club wanted to sign some time ago but could not, and this summer will have a good chance.

This player is a young goalscorer and the price tag that his club put him was of 110 million euro, but the coronavirus crisis hit the economy of Inter and now the Italian team will ask for less money, giving FC Barcelona a better chance of signing him without having to spend an amount they do not have.

So, the Cules will have a good shot at the signing of Lautaro Martinez. The striker would love to play for FC Barcelona, but the transfer depends of what sum of money is Inter willing to accept, because although they need to make sales to make more money, Lautaro is key and will not be cheap.

Martinez is 23 years old and has just scored a hattrick for his club against Crotone. He is a starter for Argentina and it is said that he will take the number 10 shirt when Lionel Messi leaves. With seven goals in 13 matches for the national team, he is the best Argentinian player currently after the GOAT, so that attack is in good hands, and FC Barcelona's might be too.
