The Story of  Lautaro Martinez

• As I mentioned earlier, Lautaro's father was also a football player. His father has struggled with retirement over the years, so he hopes to continue his dream through his son. Luckily Lautaro was physically educated by his father and determined his ambition in life - to become a professional football player. A love of the sport and Lautaro's determination to succeed gave Lautaro the courage to start a football tryout at the city's local club, the Liniers. Luckily he was accepted by the club and learned a lot from his father.

• During his early years at the club, Lautaro Martinez followed his father's guidance and through his own efforts, he managed to grow up in the youth ranks of the Liniers academy. So he wanted to join a better club.

• At the age of 15, he was discovered by Boca Juniors who invited him to a trial training. But in the end, the club rejected him, saying he did not meet the standard to play for them. Lautaro Martinez never gave up, though. A year later, his brilliance caught the attention of Racing Club interim coach Fabio Ladali, who signed him in January 2014.

• Lautaro rose to prominence thanks to his attacking and scoring abilities. Because of his increasing performance, other great clubs such as Real Madrid, Valencia, Atlético de Madrid, and Inter Milan started to take an interest in him. In the end, Inter Milan signed him where he won two league titles, the latter of which saw him being named Serie A Most Valuable Player and being Serie A top scorer. Martínez also won two Coppa Italia titles with Inter, and reached the finals of the 2020 UEFA Europa League and the 2023 UEFA Champions League.
  

• At Inter, despite being used as a substitute, Lautaro did his best. At the 2019 Copa America tournament, he played at the Copa América in 2019, helping the team to finish third-place. He and Argentina later won the 2021 Copa América and the 2024 Copa América, the latter of which saw Martínez being the top scorer with five goals, including one in the 2024 final against Colombia.  He also played in the Argentina team that won the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
