Lautaro Martinez has long tipped as the next big thing of Argentina's renowned production line of strikers. Intelligent, dynamic and technically gifted, the South American has much more to his game than just scoring goals. Having already scored 13 goals for his club, he is leading Antonio Conte's mission to end the monopolization off Serie A by Juventus.

The versatile forward has formed a deadly partnership with Romelu Lukaku, operating in a 3-5-2 system. He may not be as prolific as Luis Suarez, yet he is talented enough to form a blossoming partnership with his fellow countrymen Lionel Messi at Barcelona. Standing just 5 feet 7 inch tall, he would cherish a team that doesn't rely on long balls much.

At times, his quick thinking and sharpness in front of goal are reminiscent of Suarez himself. Inter have already played Barca twice this season and it felt like an audition for Lautaro to finally end up in Camp Nou. His recent form has drawn admiring eyes from the Catalan giants. Inter would be so reluctant to let him go, hence it would require an audacious bid to tempt the Italian side into selling their gem.
