The Italian striker is not a big fan of Argentine striker Lautaro Martinez and he showed it.
Lautaro Martinez may well be Inter Milan’s number one offensive asset today, but he doesn’t just have admirers among the great players who have played at this club. For example, the whimsical Mario Balotelli prefers other attackers.
Balotelli places Tevez above Lautaro
Balotelli had to speak about Martinez during a Live video with Italian friends. When it was suggested that the Nerazzurri’s Argentine striker was better than Carlos Tevez, Super Mario got up and left.
After a while, Balotelli returned and spoke. “I can’t let you say that, he declared to his interlocutor. You can’t say such a thing. Yes, Lautaro is one of the best current 9, but he is not better than Tevez.”

Balotelli played with Tevez at Manchester City. He still remembers the training sessions with the Apache: “You just couldn’t take the ball away from him. He’s one of the strongest strikers I’ve seen play in my life. Don’t laugh at that. And how do you stick to your idea?
