Premier League powerhouses Manchester United are considering Inter Milan's Lautaro Martinez as a potential attacking addition this summer.

The Red Devils lack a traditional No9 who can lead the line and the Argentinian international is the latest to be linked with a switch to Old Trafford.

Football Insider report that the Italian giants would be willing to let the 25-year-old leave at the end of the season in order to raise funds for a rebuild.

But the 2021 Serie A champions would still demand a fee of up to £70million for their talisman.

The World Cup winner has two years left on his contract and is in fine form for the Nerazzurri, netting 17 times in 32 league appearances this term.

Erik ten Hag is keen on recruiting someone who will fit his aggressive system, with Martinez known for his willingness to press and win the ball high up the field.

Harry Kane remains the favoured option for the Dutch coach but with Tottenham likely to play the role of tough negotiator, he may have to consider alternative options.

Victor Osimhen is another striker under consideration by the Manchester club and is likely to be the most expensive target on Ten Hag's summer wishlist.

Martinez provides a middle ground for United and is able to play as a winger, No10 or as a lone striker, adding some more versatility to the squad.
