Arsenal’s pursuit of Racing Club’s striker\u00a0Lautaro Martinez is set to end fruitlessly after the attacker confirmed that he is on his way to the Italian Serie A.<\/p>\n
The Gunners have been tracking the South American for a long time now, but they faced serious competition from Inter Milan and other top European sides, which has ultimately ended in them missing out of his signature.<\/p>\n
According to Talks Sport, he has agreed to a\u00a0\u20ac20.2million with the Italian giants and is set to join them next summer. He has reportedly agreed to a deal until the summer of 2023 in a bitter blow to the Gunners.<\/p>\n
He has admitted to holding talks with Inter Milan’s Sporting Director,\u00a0Piero Ausilio<\/p>\n
“I met Ausilio and he told me about Inter,” Martinez told Ole.<\/p>\n
“He told me things that I’d already heard from [former Inter Milan strike Diego] Milito.<\/p>\n
“My future? I’m happy to stay at Racing for now. Negotiations between the two clubs are for my agent.<\/p>\n
“I’m definitely staying here until June, so I can’t afford to think of anything else.”<\/p>\n
Arsenal currently have two top strikers, Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, but Wenger wants to sign another attacker to offer support to the duo.<\/p>\n
