Inter Milan’s captain, Lautaro Martinez, expressed optimism regarding his contract extension negotiations with the club, emphasizing gratitude towards the organization for their ongoing discussions.
The club’s management, led by directors, has engaged in talks with Martinez’s agent, Alejandro Camano, for an extended period.
Despite assertions from both sides indicating an impending agreement, a final resolution is yet to materialize.
Martinez’s existing contract, spanning until 2026, ensures his immediate future with the club remains secure. However, Inter Milan aims to solidify a long-term commitment, potentially extending his tenure until 2029.
Reports suggest ongoing efforts to reconcile disparities between Martinez’s salary expectations and the club’s proposed terms. Additionally, speculation arises concerning the impact of Suning’s resolution of the Oaktree loan on finalizing the deal.
Addressing the situation, Martinez affirmed ongoing negotiations, stating, “We are working on the contract extension. We hope to find an agreement,” during his attendance at the Gentleman Fair Play Award ceremony in Milan, as reported by FcInterNews.
Expressing gratitude for his achievements and acknowledging the support of teammates, staff, and fans throughout his career, the 2022 World Cup winner remains optimistic about reaching a favorable resolution with Inter Milan.
