Inter are prepared to invest in Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang if Argentine striker Lautaro Martinez is sold in the summer, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the English newspaper the Express.
The report details how Barcelona’s top two targets in the upcoming
summer transfer window are the 22-year-old Inter striker and Brazilian
star Neymar. The Milanese club are the only team following Aubameyang at
the moment and would be happy to purchase the 30-year-old Gabonese
striker if Lautaro was sold to Barcelona.
Aubameyang’s
contract expires with Arsenal in June of 2021, the report details, and
talks of a renewal have stalled. The player’s £300 thousand a week wage
bill and a 30% increase for the final season put a strain on the North
London club’s finances, suggesting that they may offer a discount on the
player.
Aubameyang has scored 20 goals and provided one assist in 32 appearances across all competitions so far this season.
