Barcelona are allegedly confident about securing a deal for Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez.
Having scored 16 goals in Serie A and the Champions League this season, Martinez has been heavily linked with a switch to Camp Nou.
Although Barcelona may have to make player sales beforehand, the Catalan giants are determined to find a long-term replacement for Luis Suarez.
According to Marca, the Spanish side are closing in on an agreement for the 22-year-old, who has also been linked with Manchester City and Real Madrid.
While Inter would prefer to keep the Argentina international in the long term, the frontman is said to possess a release clause in the region of £92m.
However, should Barca opt against meeting that figure, Inter remain in a strong position with Martinez still having over three years left on his contract.
