To think about Inter is to think about the Lautaro-Lukaku couple. Argentinian and Belgian have become one of the most feared pairs on the football planet, if not the most. Although, especially Barça, tried to break the scoring marriage. The famous termination clause of 111 million euros, the critical Blaugrana financial situation and the global economic ravages of COVID-19 extinguished the attempts to remove the Bull from San Siro. However, your contract expires in 2023 and the renewal does not come.
The Gazzetta dello Sport reports that it is a matter of 2.5 million euros. That is, the difference between the 7.5 requested by the striker and the 5 offered by the neroazurri. In addition, the Italian media points to the increase or disappearance of the clause as a measure to remove teams that have sufficient economic muscle. Much has been said about the love or not of Bahía Blanca for an extension with Inter. In fact, the protagonist himself asked the question in the preview of the clash against Shakhtar: “My future? I don't know what will happen …”. That question represents that space between your request and what was delivered by the interista directive, for now.
“Now I can only say that I will give everything for my team”he continued. Without closing doors, like that of Barça. In the aforementioned match, Lautaro missed a chance that would have given his team three points. His reaction after the change, Conte replaced him in 72 ', showed the visceral personality that he carries, that which should reassure the Inter parish. He will give everything for his team, of course. But the Italians must speed up if you don't want the thing to twist now that it seems to straighten and everything explodes. Right now, the 111 million is not a trivial amount, but when the lean cows pass and there is economic power, it will be difficult to keep the big stakeholders away.
Inter's thirteenth salary
We cannot forget that our protagonist 'only' earns 2.5 million euros a year. That is, it has 12 players ahead of Inter's salary scale, according to the report shared some time ago by her own. Gazzetta. Lautaro asks to match his attack partner, Lukaku, and an Eriksen who signed for € 7.5 M and now he is in a limbo that few expected last January. Arturo Vidal (€ 6.5 M), Achraf (€ 5 M), Perisic (€ 5 M), Nainggolan (€ 4.5 M), De Vrij (€ 3.8 M), Brozovic (€ 3.5 M), Handanovic (€ 3.2 M) , Kolarov (€ 3M), Skriniar (€ 3M), Ashley Young (€ 3M) are ahead and share step with Barella and Vecino.
