Lautaro Martinez, a standout for Inter Milan, is a backup option that Manchester United had intended to pursue before next summer, according to GiveMeSport (via Express). Currently, the Red Devils are 'waiting for clarification' in relation to their top three targets, Harry Kane of Tottenham Hotspur, Victor Osimhen of Napoli, and Dusan Vlahovic of Juventus. The World Cup-winning Argentine is a potential backup option for the Manchester-based club if the Old Trafford side is unable to sign any of them.
In the summer of 2018, Martinez committed to Inter. Since then, the 25-year-old has become one of the top strikers in Serie A, going from strength to strength. The Argentine has recovered his shooting form in recent seasons and has been productive for the Nerazzurri. The Premier League champions, Manchester City, will soon meet Simone Inzaghi's club, who is now playing in the Champions League final.
