Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez emerges as a transfer target for Manchester City, according to a report.

Manchester City are reportedly weighing up a swoop for Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez.

The 22-year-old has been in impressive form for Inter during the 2019-20 campaign, finding the back of the net on 13 occasions in 19 appearances in all competitions.

Martinez has managed eight goals in 14 Serie A fixtures, while he has also struck five times in five Champions League outings during a strong start to the season.

Manchester United and Barcelona have both been linked with the Argentina international in recent weeks.

However, according to Sky Sport Italia, City are also in the hunt with head coach Pep Guardiola viewing Martinez as the perfect player to provide competition for Sergio Aguero in the final third.

Inter are said to value the South American attacker in the region of £96m.
