Lautaro Martínez is the footballer by which the FC Barcelona decants to address the relief generacional of Luis Suárez. The Argentinian, to his 22 years, has showed his potential through portentosas performances in the Inter of Milan, has enamoured to the sportive direction of the Barcelona club and, by what seems, has woken up win them of Leo Messi to share changing room with him in the Camp Nou, as well as already it does it in the Argentinian selection.

Like this it ensured it Víctor White, president of Racing of Avellaneda, the club in which Lautaro Martínez began to stand out before doing it in the Inter of Milan. In an interview for the Italian newspaper 'The Gazzetta dello Sport', the leader of the Argentinian club ensured that Messi, convinced of the quality of the forward 'neroazzurro', wishes to have him at the side the next campaign.

"Lautaro is a goleador born, an animal of the area, therefore Leo Messi wants it with him", left to fall White, arguing that "it is simple: playing together with Argentina saw what can do". Messi and Lautaro already have coincided like attacker couple of the 'albiceleste' and, in front of the need to relieve to Luis Suárez (that is 33 years old and recently was taken part of the knee), seems that the interista convinces so much to the club culé as to his star.

"Messi saw in Argentina what Lautaro can do"

Besides, the leader of Racing left clear that the ex player of his team is qualified to play in the Barça. "I do not have doubts, Lautaro is prepared. It was surprising the capacity to adapt and go up of level all the time. When it happened of the youth to the first team, when it arrived to Europe, even with Argentina, was in the centre of the team after a time. Maybe it carry some months adapt, but this him sucede to all the players", commented.

In fact, White thinks that Lautaro would not take too much in assaulting the place of Luis Suárez. "I think that if Lautaro goes to Barcelona will be the headline in little time. It is a born winner, lives the challenges of a total way and afterwards have to consider that only it has 22 years: in comparison with Suárez, that is a crack, has this advantage innegable. In the football, ​​the youngsters begin to expel slowly to the most experienced", considers.

The president of Racing, however, left clear that the final decision on his destination will have it the own Lautaro. "Obviously it is his decision, if Lautaro is convinced that it has to give the jump, only he knows it. He is not a boy that acts by impulse, if it is convinced, am safe that it will be well. If it thinks that still it is not smart, will remain in the Inter", affirmed.

The influence of Conte in Lautaro

White, that in March of 2018 sold to Lautaro to the Inter by 25 million euros, considered fundamental the influence of Antonio Conte, technical interista, on Lautaro. "This season has been fundamental: Conte took a diamond in the rough, that already shined in the football sudamericano and finished of pulirlo to do it brilliant. The credit goes for Lautaro Martínez and those who surround it. Always I have had faith in him: when it was to the first team with Racing, had big players in front of him, but imposed with personality", sentenced.
