From England: Manchester United want Inter forward

24 ott 2019

According to what has been reported by English newspaper the Manchester Evening News, Manchester United are interested in signing Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez. The Argentine forward has been a big part of the Nerazzurri set-up under Antonio Conte and both scored and missed a penalty in the club's 2-0 win in the UEFA Champions League over Borussia Dortmund last night.

Manchester United, on the other hand, have a serious weakness in attack after selling Belgian forward Romelu Lukaku to Inter in the summer. The club are left without a true striker, only youngster Mason Greenwood and natural wingers Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford.

United reportedly see the Argentine forward as a viable option to reinforce the attack but will come up against resistance from the Nerazzurri, who reportedly had to fend off Spanish giants FC Barcelona in the summer just finished.
