Barcelona 'learn asking price for Lautaro Martinez'

Inter Milan have reportedly informed Barcelona that the asking price for Lautaro Martinez is €90m (£83m).

The Catalan giants have been strongly linked with a move for the 23-year-old in recent months, although the financial impact of the coronavirus outbreak has made a deal more difficult for Ronald Koeman's side.

According to Marca, Barca remain locked in talks with Inter over a potential deal for the Argentina international, who is valued by his Italian club at €90m (£83m).

The South American, who still has three years left to run on his contract at San Siro, has scored 30 times and registered eight assists in 84 appearances for Inter in all competitions.

Manchester City are also believed to be long-term admirers of the centre-forward as they prepare for life after Sergio Aguero, with the 32-year-old potentially moving on next summer.

Barca are thought to be keen to discuss a swap deal with Inter for Martinez, who is seemingly viewed as the ideal long-term replacement for alleged Juventus target Luis Suarez.
