Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez in the summer transfer window.

According to a report Fichajes, Lautaro Martinez is the subject of interest from Chelsea heading into the summer transfer window.

The South American is one of the best strikers in Europe right now, and he could prove to be an excellent acquisition for Chelsea. They need more depth in the attacking unit, and it is no surprise that they want to sign the World Cup winner. Martinez has proven himself in Italy, and he has the physicality and technical attributes for English football as well. He could be the ideal partner for Joao Pedro next season.

Liam Delap has not been able to live up to the expectations since joining the club, and he has scored just one goal for them this season. Chelsea need an upgrade on the player. Martinez has been a reliable performer at the highest level for a number of seasons, and he could transform Chelsea’s attack. Apart from his ability to find the back of the net, he will also help create opportunities for his teammates.

Martinez could fancy a move to Chelsea

The opportunity to move to the Premier League could be exciting for the South American. It will be an interesting challenge for him at this stage of his career. He has already achieved a lot in Italy, and he could look to test himself in a new league.

Chelsea is among the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to play for them will be hard to turn down. They have the financial muscle to convince the Italian outfit as well.

Chelsea are now plotting a €100 million move for the 28-year-old attacker, and it will be interesting to see if they can wrap up the move in the coming months. It would be an exceptional acquisition for them, and it could add a whole new dimension to the attacking unit. They will look to fight for major trophies next season, and they need elite players like Martinez.

The 28-year-old striker has 18 goals and four assists in all competitions this season.
