The Inter Milan forward was identified as a replacement for Atletico Madrid-bound Luis Suarez last year. But Barcelona somehow failed to secure the player's signature. Although the Blaugrana recently completed a swoop for 32-year-old Sergio Aguero, they still need to work on a long-term replacement. Lautaro Martinez would be a great option for several reasons.

To start with, the 23-year-old is a great admirer of Lionel Messi and Barcelona. Imagine the trio of Messi, Aguero and Martinez running riot in Barca's attack and the Argentina national team for the next two to three years. What an amazing prospect! It would surely melt the hearts of Cules across the globe.

Lautaro is a player that would suit the Blaugrana's style of play perfectly. He is technical, has a good sense of positioning, works hard without the ball and most importantly, has an eye for goal. He was highly influential as Inter Milan ran riot on their way to claiming the Serie A title last season. He bagged 19 goals and 11 assists for the Nerazzuri across all competitions during the campaign.

The Argentine should come cheaper right now after the whole fuss and buzz has died down. As per Transfermarkt, he is worth €80 million which could be brought down significantly during negotiations. It would be nice and pocket-friendly to have him as the marquee signing Joan Laporta is expected to make this summer.
