A Christmas gift: Lautaro to extend his contract and become the highest paid player in the team

The Nerazzurri captain is ready to extend his contract with the Beneamata: he aims to become a symbol of the club.

No surprises, but Inter is preparing a nice Christmas and New Year gift for their fans. Under the Inter tree, there is ready the renewal of their captain, Lautaro Martinez. As reported by Gazzetta dello Sport, the extension of Toro’s contract is now just a matter of details:

The parties have continued to work tirelessly in recent weeks, and are now near to finalize everything. We are in the final stretch of a long marathon of negotiations, experienced with great serenity by all parties.

Lautaro has always chosen Inter, even when Barcelona and Real Madrid tempted him, and then when tue clibs from Saudi Arabia put a staggering offer on the table to lure him away from the Nerazzurri. The Argentine said no and committed to the Nerazzurri.

He has embraced the Inter project, becoming a key figure in the process, he is the face of the new Inter. And he wants to continue growing and winning in black and blue, with the captain’s armband on his arm and the love of the Inter family around him.

Lautaro Martinez will sign a contract for 7 million euros net per season until June 30, 2028, becoming the highest-paid player on the team. A reward for loyalty and his leadership, which has become even stronger since he started wearing the captain’s armband.”

According to Gazzetta, Inter hopes to officially announce Toro’s contract renewal before Christmas. Currently in his sixth season with Inter, Lautaro aims to stay in Nerazzurro for over 10 years, becoming one of the club’s most enduring forwards.

Now, Toro’s goal is the Scudetto, a true obsession after the incredible ending of the 2021-22 season, which saw him crying under the Curva Nord after losing the title in a photo finish.

“The Martinez family has chosen Milan, sworn allegiance to Inter, and wants to continue growing together with the club, aiming to win everything possible together,” concludes Gazzetta dello Sport.
