Inter sets the valuation of Lautaro Martinez, the Nerazzurri captain and star of the World Cup final, at 120 million euros. This figure sends a clear message to the market: the Argentine number ten is not for sale.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Nerazzurri executives have raised the bar compared to previous estimates. Specialized sites valued the Toro at around 90 million after winning his second top scorer title and third career scudetto, but the club’s valuation is even higher. For Marotta and Ausilio, the captain is now worth no less than 120 million, a scientific way to secure him.
The Argentine striker leads the Albiceleste alongside Messi in the World Cup final, confirming his top form. Unlike in 2022, he arrived at the World Cup in optimal condition and his performances prove it. All of Inter, except for the new starting goalkeeper who is going around training camp with the Spanish jersey and Pedri’s name on his back, is cheering for Argentina.
His teammates have embraced their captain from afar with messages from almost everyone, starting with the Italians sweating it out in the Black Forest while the South American enjoys a moment of glory. Even Cristian Chivu, who saw him up close in Miami during his American vacation, and the executives led by president Beppe Marotta and sporting director Piero Ausilio, are pampering him.
The Nerazzurri heart has always had an Argentine rhythm and that ancient beat will not change. Martinez is the man to entrust with the fate of the team and the club, tied by a contract worth 9 million per season until 2029. Another World Cup victory would also make Inter great by reflection, as the club considers its captain its pride.
