‘Another One Season Wonder’ I’d Take Him’ Fan Debate Reports That City Have Joined United In Race For £95m Rated Argentine

Manchester City and Manchester United are both interested in signing Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez, according to reports in the Italian media.

The Citizens are said to be looking for a long-term successor for Sergio Aguero and they have identified his fellow countryman as a potential option.

Martinez has scored eight goals in 16 appearances for Inter this campaign, and the Argentine has also attracted the interest of Barcelona and Real Madrid. Supporters on Twitter have been debating whether he would be a better choice than Gabriel Jesus:


The Inter star reportedly has a release fee of €111m (£95m) which can be triggered in a two week period between July 1st and July 15th next year. The buyout clause is believed to only apply to foreign clubs.

With Aguero turning 32 at the start of June, it will be interesting to see whether City are tempted to make a move for Martinez. He is 22 years of age and does have the potential to improve.
