In the world of football, everyone has their own expectations and ideals. For Inter Milan fans, what they expect is that the team can do well in all competitions, and the performance of the players is undoubtedly the most crucial part of this. When we talk about Inter Milan striker Lautaro, we have to face the fact that his performances have not lived up to expectations, and his performances in Serie A have not been outstanding.
Although Lautaro has scored 19 goals in 19 Serie A games for Inter this season, that doesn't prove that he is better than Haaland and Mbappe. In fact, he ranks third in the top five leagues in terms of goals, far behind Kane and Kylian Mbappe. Such data undoubtedly raises questions about Lautaro's expectations.
We have to admit that Lautaro is a very talented player. His shooting skills, ball control and speed are all excellent, which are his competitive advantages on the football field. The game of football is not a single technical competition, but requires the players to show their overall strength and team spirit in the game. In this regard, Lautaro's performance is somewhat lacking.
In Inter Milan games, we can often see Lautaro isolated on the pitch and unable to receive effective support from his team-mates. This situation has limited his performance to a large extent and has also affected the overall performance of the team. Lautaro's decision-making skills in the game also need to be improved. He often chooses to shoot himself at crucial moments rather than pass the ball to team-mates in better positions, and that's something he needs to improve on.
What we can't ignore is that Lautaro hasn't been consistent in the face of strong opponents. He often fails to perform at his best against strong teams, which undoubtedly causes a lot of trouble in his career. This situation is partly a reflection of his mentality, and he will need to adjust his mentality in future matches to face challenges with a more positive attitude.
Although there are some problems with Lautaro's performance, we cannot deny his value because of this. His contribution to Inter Milan was impossible to ignore, with both his goals and assists contributing to the team's victory. We need to give him more time and space to grow and improve in the game.
Overall, Lautaro's performance did not live up to expectations, and his performance in Serie A was not great. That doesn't mean he's a loser. On the contrary, he still has a lot of potential waiting to be tapped. We expect him to adjust his mentality, improve his decision-making skills, play his best and bring more victories to Inter Milan in the future.
Football is a team sport, and each player has their own responsibilities and roles. As a striker for Inter Milan, Lautaro's mission is to score goals for the team and help the team to victory. Although he has not been outstanding this season, we believe that as long as he adjusts his mentality and improves his technique, he will be able to perform at his best in the future and become an important part of Inter Milan.
We would like to say that the outcome of a football match is not only determined by the individual performance of the players, but also by the overall coordination and tactical execution of the team. Therefore, we cannot judge Lautaro's ability and value solely by his individual performances. We expect him to be able to perform at his best in the future and bring more victories to Inter.
In football, the annual salary of a player has always been the focus of attention. Recently, Inter Milan's chairman Zhang Kangyang offered the team's striker Lautaro an annual salary extension contract worth 10 million euros. The contract sparked a lot of buzz, with some arguing that it was too expensive to meet the market value. Is Zhang Kangyang's annual salary renewal contract for Lautaro really too high?
We need to understand Lautaro's performance at Inter. Over the past few seasons, Lautaro has been a consistent performer and has been a key figure in the team's forward line. His threat and scoring ability on the offensive end are top-notch, earning him quite a few victories. So, from that point of view, Lautaro really deserves a high-paying contract.
We also need to see that the current annual salary of good strikers in the football market is not at this level. Take Haaland and Mbappe, for example, two young players who have made a name for themselves in international football, but neither of them has an annual salary of more than 10 million euros. This shows that Lautaro's annual salary requirement is indeed a bit excessive.
Why did Zhang Kangyang offer such a contract for Lautaro? Some analysts believe that this may be related to the investors behind Inter Milan. In recent years, the influence of Chinese capital in global football has been expanding, and more and more Chinese investors have begun to pay attention to the football industry. For these investors, they want to see the teams they invest in do well, and signing high-quality players is undoubtedly the key to improving the team. As a result, they are willing to pay a high annual salary for a good player like Lautaro in the hope of doing well on the field.
Is this reasonable? From a market perspective, a player's annual salary should match his abilities and performance. An excessively high annual salary may cause a player's mentality to change and affect his or her performance on the field. Excessively high annual salaries may also lead to increased financial pressure on the team, affecting the long-term development of the team.
In this regard, we can learn from some successful examples. For example, Barcelona and Real Madrid, two La Liga giants, are very cost-effective when signing players. They not only focus on the player's ability, but also take into account factors such as the player's age, potential, etc. This allows them to keep the team competitive without the financial pressure of exorbitant annual salaries.
We also cannot deny that Zhang Kangyang's contract for Lautaro has a certain degree of reasonableness. After all, Lautaro was really good at Inter Milan and he won a lot of accolades for the team. Moreover, football is a team sport, and the addition of a good player can often improve the strength of the whole team. So, to some extent, it's worth paying a high annual salary.
Zhang Kangyang's contract extension of 10 million euros for Lautaro is indeed a bit too high. While Lautaro's performances have been outstanding, his annual salary requirements are clearly above market value compared to other good strikers on the market. We should also see that behind this high annual salary is a reflection of the enthusiasm and support of Chinese investors for football. In the future development of the football industry, we hope to see more investors pay attention to the football industry and contribute to the development of Chinese football. We also expect football clubs to be more rational about the issue of players' annual salaries, give full play to the value of players, and bring more exciting games to fans.
Inter Milan, once the giant of European football, is now facing a huge financial crisis. In this predicament, how should the team deal with Lautaro's contract extension? Is it to raise the contract extension, or to put it up for a fire sale**? This is a question that requires deep thought.
We have to admit that Inter's current financial situation is not optimistic. Over the past few seasons, the team's financial losses have continued to widen, which has put them under tremendous pressure to bring in reinforcements and maintain the team's operations. In this case, if Lautaro's contract extension is continued to be raised, it could further increase the financial burden on the team. After all, Lautaro is a strong player, and his salary is bound to be no less. If the team raises his contract in order to keep him, then they may need to make cuts in other positions, which will negatively impact the overall strength of the team.
If Inter choose to sell Lautaro**, it could ease the financial pressure in the short term, but they could lose a strong player. Lautaro's place in the team speaks for itself as his attacking ability and defensive awareness are important supporters of the team. If he leaves, the team could face a period of declining strength. Moreover, it is not easy to find a player who can replace Lautaro, which requires an investment of time and money.
In this case, Inter Milan need to make a wise choice. They have the option of negotiating with Lautaro for a contract that will both meet the needs of the players and ease the financial pressure. They can also use this opportunity to make some necessary reforms, such as cutting unnecessary expenses and improving the efficiency of the team's business operations.
Overall, Inter Milan face a dilemma. Whether it's raising a contract extension or putting it up for sale**, there are pros and cons. However, they all need to address this issue as soon as possible so that they can better meet the challenges ahead. In the process, they will need to show enough intelligence and determination to ensure that the team can find a way out of the difficult situation.
We expect Inter Milan to successfully resolve this dilemma and regain their glory. Because only in this way can we see the Inter Milan team that once made our blood boil on the stage of European football again.
