With that being said, the striker is showing his desire to stay with Inter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy plan is clear: I really want to stay at Inter next season,&#8221; Martinez said in quotes reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FabrizioRomano\/status\/1532288691317706753\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fabrizio Romano<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve not received communications from the club as of today, I want to continue at Inter next season.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The last part of the quote sparks some concern. Martinez mentions that he hasn&#8217;t received any communications from the club. Inter must get on top of this, as they just lost one of their star wingers,\u00a0Ivan Perisic, to Tottenham.<\/p>\n<p>Martinez is just 24-years-old, and turns 25 right before next season. He holds three major trophies to his name with Inter &#8211; one Serie A title, one Coppa Italia, and one Italian Super Cup. It&#8217;s safe to say his journey with Inter has been rather successful thus far.<\/p>\n<p>This past season, the Argentine international scored 21 goals and provided 3 assists in 35 matches. The season prior, he scored 17 goals and assisted 10 times in 38 matches. Clearly, the striker contributes to goals in a variety of ways. Inter&#8217;s other primary striking option, Edin Dzeko, is also ageing as he&#8217;s now 36-years-old, meaning Martinez is both the present and future of the club.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, Inter look to be hot on the trail of pursuing<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/06\/02\/juventus-full-back-renews-contract-three-seasons\/\" target=\"_self\"> Juventus<\/a> star forward <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/06\/02\/paulo-dybala-comments-manchester-united-inter\/\" target=\"_self\">Paulo Dybala<\/a>. He&#8217;ll be available on a free transfer at the end of this month, and it makes plenty of sense for Inter to pair up two Argentine stars in their attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inter Milan star Lautaro Martinez has revealed that he wants to remain at the club amid interest from Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Tottenham Hotspur.
