But, they do have the best Italian CEO in business, Beppe Marotta in their ranks and he pulled it off (again). But today, the Inter fans just got the ‘cherry on top‘ in a form of a new and improved contract for their leader.Smile, captain! ©️😁📸✍🏻#ForzaInter #Lautaro2029 pic.twitter.com/aUHjuM0PKG— Inter ⭐⭐ (@Inter_en) August 12, 2024 Lautaro Martínez signed a new contract with Inter until 2029, with a salary of 9,000,000 euros. As reported by the Italian media, everything was finished at the begining of July, but was formalized today. Before the deal, negotiations were dragging on since Lautaro‘s manager tried to get the best possible conditions for his client. He even put Martinez‘s name right next to Haaland and Mbappé. His three-year deal for Martinez consisted of a wage of 12 million euros in the first year, 14 in the second and 16 million in his last year of contract!Middle ground found: Lautaro accepted Inter’s final offerNeedles to say, this proposition failed and the final deal ended with nine million.“The renewal means a lot, I am proud and grateful, I thank the directors and the club. After six years, still being here means a lot to me and my family, I am really happy and I really want to fight to win again. I want to give 100% in every game and always help my teammates, to be an example to follow. I have grown a lot, on and off the pitch, becoming a father has made me mature a lot, having my family close by is very important. I work every day to always give more, I try to constantly improve. Having scored so much makes me happy, but I want to score many more goals with this shirt. We have won a lot in these years and the Second Star makes me proud because we have made the history of this Club. I want to thank all our fans because they have always supported us at every moment” he said for the club‘s website after penning a new deal. Lautaro wants a mammoth contact, Inter irritatedLautaro did not travel to London, just like Çalhanoğlu, because coach Simone Inzaghi did not want to take any risks. The Argentine arrived in Milan five days ago, while Çalhanoğlu had some minor health issues, so the draw with Chelsea (1-1) passed withouth both men. However, both are expected to be in the starting lineup on Saturday against Genoa in the season opener at the Marassi.##NAJAVA_MECA_8262779##
