The Inter of Milan did not achieve to surpass the phase of groups of the Champions League, although it depended on yes same to classify to the eighth of final and accompany to the Real Madrid to the draw of this Monday (12:00 hours in Spain). The ones of Antonio Conte could not surpass to the Shakhtar Donetsk and were near to lose the meeting, that finished in tables. The 'nerazzurri' remained in the fourth square, without eighth and without ticket for the Europe League.
It is the second consecutive year that happens him the same to the Inter. In the past season saw surpassed by the FC Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund, but remained with the hope of the Europe League (that it finished losing in front of the Seville in the final). Curiously, this year also they were deleted by a Spanish team (Real Madrid) and another German (Borussia Monchengladbach) and the history of Conte with the Champions League begins to be more than worrisome.
In any one of the cases, the elimination has not fallen very well in the club, institutional neither deportivamente. Not surpassing the phase of groups supposes less economic income and already pose from Giuseppe Meazza not going out to the wintry market by reinforcements, what also could suppose the need to sell to key players so that the team do not live a financial crisis. On the other hand, they are several players those that are not happy with the situation that live at present and, probably, look for to abandon prompt Milan.
One of them would be Lautaro Martínez, that fulfilled 100 official parties with the Inter. The Argentinian is got angry with the club after the elimination and already would have done it to him know to his trainer and leaders. Lautaro, that lives a big professional moment, sees frustrated by the exert community of the team, what will move away undoubtedly the options that it renew his agreement (that it wins in 2023) and approaches the options that it look for a new club.
It keeps on being a priority for the Barça
It is not a secret that Lautaro Martínez has been one of the dreams of the FC Barcelona in the last years. In fact, during the summer, the now ex president of the club, Josep María Bartomeu, recognised that from the City Condal had begun conversations with the Inter and the agents of the footballer, but detained by the high price of the Argentinian, that the Barcelona picture was not in conditions to pay by the economic crisis that lived (and lives, still).
The situation has not changed, regarding the financial subject, but unlike the summer, now Lautaro yes would have intentions to abandon definitively Giuseppe Meazza, what would facilitate a lot his arrival to the Camp Nou. Besides, the Argentinian now has Jorge Mendes, the one who has been him helping in the research of a new team to continue his career futbolística.
