Barcelona captain Lionel Messi has again admitted his admiration for Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez.
Barca are locked in talks with Inter to sign the Argentina international.
While admitting he’s a fan of his Argentina teammate, Messi says he has no influence on Barca’s signing plans.
He told Mundo Deportivo: “If I am honest I do not know very well if there were or are negotiations right now for him, I have no idea.
“I think I already mentioned it, that Lautaro is an impressive striker, especially because I think he is a very complete forward: he is strong, he dribbles well, he has a goal, he knows how to protect the ball…
“But well, we will have to see what happens finally with him and with other names that are said.”
