'We aim to win': Lautaro Martinez targets Club World Cup and reveals what makes Inter special
Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez has spoken to UEFA’s official channels about the Club World Cup and what sets the Nerazzurri apart.
Inter’s ambition "I always say it, and I’ll say it again: for me, for Inter, with its history and importance, the goal must always be to win. Of course, we all know there can be challenges, opponents, and the odd setback, but it’s crucial to give everything for Inter and push the team as far as possible in every competition we enter," Lautaro stated.
What makes Inter unique "Inter is synonymous with passion. If I think of Inter, that’s the first word that comes to mind. Passion, because every teammate, every player who joins, ends up living this passion - for the jersey, the club, the badge. The fans here in Italy show it every week, and I’m sure they’ll do the same in the USA, supporting us on this journey. This club has won so much in recent years.
"The last title, especially meaningful, let us add the second star to our shirt, matching our eternal rivals Milan. Thankfully, we achieved it, and it will forever be part of our history. That’s what counts and what makes Inter one of Italy’s and the world’s greatest teams - I hope we keep this path alive."
Leadership style "I don’t know. I always say - and I was just discussing this with my dad yesterday - that leaders aren’t made, they’re born. Still, I always emphasize I need everyone because the team comes before the individual. To reach big goals like the one ahead, everyone’s collaboration is essential.
"Of course, a leader guides, sets an example, and is someone everyone looks to, but ultimately, the group matters most. The key is for the leader to maintain a positive attitude, exemplary behavior, and be a reference point for teammates," he added.
Lautaro’s clear vision for the Club World Cup underscores Inter’s aim to go all the way, boosting their financial standing further.
