The agent of Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez insists that there has been no "formal or serious" offers for his client despite reported interest from Barcelona.

The agent of Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez has revealed that there is no "formal or serious" interest in his client yet.

Barcelona have been heavily linked with a move for the Argentine forward this summer, having reportedly identified him as an ideal long-term replacement for Luis Suarez.

Real Madrid and Manchester City have also been credited with an interest in the 22-year-old, but his agent Beto Yaque has insisted that Martinez is fully focused on Inter Milan at the moment.

"It's been said that Barcelona and Real Madrid both want him, but for him it's like nothing is happening. Others wouldn't sleep at night. He never calls me to ask if the rumours are true, he's focused on where he is and his work," Yaque is quoted as saying by Football Italia.

"We've talked to lots of people, but nothing more than that. For now, those who are calling me aren't directly registered by various clubs. There's nothing formal or serious. Being wanted on the market is something you dream of, but he's not expecting anything: all he wants to do is play and score goals.

"His constant growth means the best teams in the world are looking at Lautaro with interest. We hope his efforts will be rewarded like they deserve to."

Martinez, whose contract at San Siro runs until 2023, has scored 16 goals in 31 appearances for Inter Milan this season.
