Lautaro: ‘I would sign the new contract tomorrow. I want to score 100 goals. Inzaghi is a ‘TOP’ coach

The Nerazzurri captain to Sportmediaset: “I hope to score 100 goals (laughs)… Inzaghi is a top coach, and we are working to reach all our objectives.”

Inter’s captain, Lautaro Martinez, spoke exclusively to Sport Mediaset and confirms his intention to renew his contract with the club: “It’s almost done. Signing on New Year’s? I hope I can sign tomorrow! I am calm and serene; I feel good here and am eager to renew.” The Inter captain then discusses the excellent start to the season: “Honestly, I expected all of this, although I didn’t think we would click so quickly.”

INTER, LAUTARO, AND THE SECOND STAR

Lautaro doesn’t want to choose between another Champions League final and the ‘Second Star Scudetto’: “I have always said that I play this sport to win. It’s challenging to reach all the objectives, but we work for this.” Is Juventus the main rival in the league? “The road is still long; the first half hasn’t even finished. We must continue like this because there are other strong teams like Milan and Napoli.”

LAUTARO AND COMPLIMENTS TO SIMONE INZAGHI

Our coach has grown a lot both technically and as a person. He is an extraordinary person who gives everyone a chance, if you train well, then you will play. He is definitely a Top coach, and he has already had incredible three years here, winning cups and reaching the Champions League final. The missed Serie A titles are still there, but now we want to win it this year.”

INTER, LAUTARO: AIM FOR 100 GOALS

The Argentine forward jokes when asked if he has a seasonal goal target in mind: “Let’s say 100? (laughs). I would like to score a lot, but the important thing is that Inter wins. My goal is to elevate my level every year.

On his new striking partner Thuram:

Me and him like Eto’o and Milito? No, they made Inter’s history. Marcus arrived with a great spirit, and we will do everything to help the team until the end.”

INTER, LAUTARO: CONTRACT RENEWAL

Finally, regarding the contract renewal until 2028, which seems imminent: “The signature? Everything is ready, only a couple of details are missing. I am eager to renew; I feel good here, and my family is also doing well. The people love me, and I love them. The club will do its part, and I am doing mine. It’s almost done; there’s no problem; I am calm.”
