In the early morning of May 24, Beijing time, Pasquale Guarro, a senior reporter of Inter Milan, updated the progress of the contract renewal between Inter Milan and Lautaro. According to him, the most important reason for the stall in negotiations between the two sides is that Lautaro and his team of agents are asking for an annual salary of 12 million euros and believe that he can be compared to top strikers like Haaland and Mbappe.

This season, Lautaro Martinez, who wore the armband of the Inter captain, played 44 games in all competitions for Inter, scoring 27 goals and 3 assists, including 24 goals and 3 assists in 33 Serie A games, leading Inter to win the Serie A title and the Golden Boot. On the pitch, Lautaro's fighting spirit is impressive, and his love for the Nerazzurri is evident. With his contract expiring in the summer of 2026, Inter are happy to complete a renewal with him now.

However, negotiations have been open for a long time, but no agreement has been reached. During this period, Calhanoglu, Mkhitaryan and Bastoni have completed contract renewals, and the renewal of Barella, the core of the midfield, is also infinitely close to the official announcement, only Lautaro has always been in a deadlock. The core issue for both sides is still salary.

Inter are willing to offer Lautaro a contract extension of €8 million plus bonuses, with a maximum annual income of €10 million. But Lautaro had previously asked for a fixed annual salary of 10 million euros, but now that figure has become 12 million euros. This means that once the contract is renewed, his annual fixed pre-tax salary will reach 24 million euros, which is equivalent to 20.43 million pounds, which translates to a weekly salary of almost 400,000 pounds. Looking at the entire Premier League, only Haaland and De Bruyne have reached this income, and even Salah and Rashford can only bow to the wind.

The captain of the Serie A championship team, the Serie A Golden Boot, and the German team are worth 110 million euros, and judging from these data alone, there is nothing wrong with Lautaro asking for a maximum salary of 12 million euros. The point is that there are significant limitations to his technical characteristics. In today's world football, where the single-striker tactic is popular, Lautaro is still one of the best two-strikers. His size has prevented him from playing as a traditional centre-forward, and his speed and technical limitations have prevented him from making waves on the wings. In other words, someone has to be on the front line to open up space for him to provide support, otherwise he can't play. And this is also an important reason why he often suffers from a long goal drought, and in the World Cup, Alvarez was robbed of the main center position.

It can be said that Inter, who are currently playing 3-5-2, are the most suitable team for Lautaro. Leaving the Meazza Stadium, Lautaro has really few teams to choose from, at least none of the four giants of Real Saren City can look down on, and only Grand Paris is possible. Therefore, the annual salary is almost enough, don't bite 12 million, it is estimated that the ending will not be too good. After all, Chairman Zhang, who doted on him, has left, and an owner like Oaktree Capital is worried that he can't find an excuse to sell him for cash.
