Lautaro Martínez is one of the players who best represents Argentine football abroad. Being captain and figure of Inter Milan, the player who emerged from Racing Club shines in the Italian league, one of the most competitive in the world. The 'Toro' also claims to be part of the Argentine National Team, the team with which he managed to win the World Cup in Qatar 2022. After that historic conquest, Lautaro led Inter to the final of the Champions League last year.

In the final the Neroazzurro team was narrowly defeated by Pep Guardiola's Manchester City. However, Inter will never forget the semi-finals of that tournament, since in that instance they eliminated Milan. At 26 years old, 'Toro', in addition to being the captain, is the great figure of Inter. With the number 10 on his back, Martínez is the main attacking card of the team led by Simone Inzaghi.

In addition to the great consideration that the Italian coach has for the Bahia Blanca attacker, the same thing happens in the Argentine National Team with Lionel Scaloni. Even though Lautaro is going through a bad streak with the Albiceleste jersey, the D.T. continues to place him as a starter. It should be noted that Martínez's work is not only based on scoring goals, since it is usually an important factor for the team when it comes to putting pressure on the rival. Also, with his diagonals and his way of fixing the center backs, he creates space for his attacking teammates.

The colleague who praised Lautaro

If we talk about great scorers in Italian football, we must mention Víctor Osimhen. The intended forward shone last year in the championship that his team, Napoli, won. Osimhen, wanted by Real Madrid, spoke to the Italian media TV Play and, about Lautaro, he said: “A player who watches Serie A? I really like Lautaro, he is now the leader of Inter. It is difficult to find the words to describe the leadership he conveys. He is very good and having him in Serie A is good for Italian football,” concluded the great African scorer.
