Inter Milan captain Lautaro Martinez has outlined the club’s ambition to make a quantum leap and win the UEFA Champions League.
Speaking to Radio TV Serie A via FCInterNews, El Toro confirmed Nerazzurri’s unwavering desire to cover themselves in continental glory.
Fresh off winning the 2023/24 Serie A MVP award, Lautaro Martinez bids to help Inter seize their second treble.
Indeed, the reigning Scudetto holders are firmly in contention for several titles this season.
In addition to fighting Napoli for the Serie A crown, they’re on course to reach the Champions League knockout stages.
Only Liverpool’s 100% record trumps Inter’s 13-point haul, testifying to the team’s stellar European run.
Simone Inzaghi’s men have fortified their continental credentials every step of the way in the newly formatted league phase.
A well-deserved draw at Manchester City in round one was only the beginning.
Inter would go on to win all four remaining Champions League games ‘to nil.’
Those were by no means routine achievements.
Multi-goal margin triumphs against Red Star Belgrade and Young Boys had set the tone for Inter’s dominant form.
Indeed, consecutive 1-0 victories against Arsenal and RB Leipzig have showcased this team’s undeniable potential.
Martinez admits he and his clubmates are keen to bring home the Champions League title for the first time since 2010.
However, he is adamant the European crown wouldn’t quench Inter’s thirst for silverware.
“Is the Champions League the only thing missing? Definitely. And another Scudetto, as well as another Copa America,” he said.
“When you win, you want to win again. I stay focused on the day-to-day, but the goal is undoubtedly to lift trophies.”
Inter’s next Champions League game pits them against defending Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen.
Despite the Germans’ form wobble this term, the upcoming clash at the BayArena will be no plain sailing.
