Barcelona’s pursuit of Lautaro Martínez has taken a big step, if the latest rumors are to be believed. That’s because Junior Firpo has reportedly agreed to join Inter Milan, a crucial step in order for the operation to be a success.
Barça are reportedly willing to offer Firpo plus €70 million in order to secure the services of the Argentine striker. Firpo would be valued at €41 million, putting the total offer at €111 million, equal to Lautaro’s release clause.
While this would not directly pay the release clause, the offer would satisfy Inter’s conditions for selling Lautaro, at least theoretically.
