Inter Milan And Lautaro Martinez Mandek Due To Salary Differences

JAKARTA - Inter Milan has not extended the contract of captain Lautaro Martinez. It turned out that the final negotiations stalled due to differences in offers and salary requests.

Negotiations over Martinez's contract extension have actually entered the final stages. But Martinez is asking for a salary of 10 million euros or approximately 168 billion rupiahs annually on a new contract.

Martinez's request seems difficult to meet Inter, which only offers a salary of 8 million euros plus bonuses. If the target is met, then Martinez's income can be close to 10 million euros.

This difference makes negotiations never reach the final. In fact, Martinez's negotiation process lasted quite a long time, namely months until finally there was a difference in offers and salary requests.

However, both Inter and Martinez are optimistic that this difference will reach a common ground. Moreover, I Nerazzurri has stated that he will make Martinez the player with the highest salary in Italian Serie A.

Martinez has also shown his loyalty. Since joining in 2018, Martinez has won Serie A and Coppa Italia trophies.

Finally, the Argentine national team striker brought Inter to Supercoppa Italiana 2023-2024.

According to the plan, Martinez's contract negotiations will continue in Madrid, Spain. Why in Madrid? Martinez's own agent is based in the Spanish capital.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, negotiations were held in conjunction with Inter's match against Atletico Madrid in the last 16 of the Champions League.

Martinez's contract at Inter will actually be completed in June 2026. Meanwhile, Martinez's price, now, reaches 150 million euros.
