Inter Striker Lautaro Martinez Called Up To Argentina National Team For World Cup Qualifiers | OneFootball

Inter striker Lautaro Martinez was called up by Lionel Scaloni for Argentina’s two World Cup qualifier matches against Ecuador and Bolivia, according to an official announcement tweet yesterday.

The 23-year-old Argentine forward, who is contracted to the Nerazzurri until 2023, has started the season incredibly strongly with the Milanese club under the guidance of coach Antonio Conte.

Lautaro has scored three goals and provided one assist in his first three games this season, scoring in each game. The player has formed a formidable partnership with Belgian forward Romelu Lukaku and managed to stay with the Nerazzurri, despite the strong interest from Barcelona.

The player made his Argentina debut in 2018 and has performed well for his national team, scoring nine goals and providing one assist in 17 appearances.
