Man City and Chelsea in four-way fight for striker Lautaro Martinez

The Argentinean forward has been impressing in Serie A this season and looks set to be the subject of interest from a number of clubs this summer

Manchester City and Chelsea are ready to do battle with Spanish giants Barcelona and Real Madrid for Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez.

Martinez's agent Alberto Yaque has revealed that the race is now on to sign one of the hottest properties in football after four of Europe's top clubs declared their interest in the Argentine forward.

Yaque insisted that the 22-year-old from Bahia Blanca is happy in Milan.

Yaque said: “The truth is that apart from Barcelona, I received calls from Real Madrid, Chelsea and Manchester City.
