Manchester United exchange offer for Lautaro Martinez

Erik ten Hag wants a young striker to be Manchester United's talisman next season. And reports suggest the Dutchman has his eye on Lautaro Martínez, who has dazzled for Inter Milan in recent years. That speaks volumes about the player and the type of striker he wants at Old Trafford as he prepares to face Liverpool and Manchester City next season.

Over the weekend, reports suggested United had tried to use Anthony Martial in a trade deal to sign Martinez.

At the moment, the Serie A giants just want money to part ways with the 24-year-old striker - who has scored 16 league goals this season.

However, the fact that United are apparently keeping an eye on Martinez suggests that he is the kind of player that Ten Hag wants to lead their attack.
