More prestigious recognition for Lautaro Martinez, who won the “Performance” prize at the “Gazzetta Sports Awards” during the eleventh “Notte dei campioni” (“Night of Champions”). The Nerazzurri captain, currently the league’s top scorer with seven goals in 14 matches, took to the stage at the Auditorium of Fiera Milano Rho to collect the award, earned thanks to his performances, leadership, and goals.
“I've reached a big milestone thanks to hard work and sacrifice. As a youngster, I went through some tough times, but my family always supported me. What we did this year shouldn't be taken for granted. We managed to take Inter back to where it belonged, after all this time. Now, we have a new coach, who gives us a lot of energy, even if the odd result didn't go our way. There are a lot of teams in the title race, so we need to stay in it and never give up. Esposito? You could see how good he was when he was playing youth football. We need to give him time and space. He'll be a big player for Inter and Italy.”

The award is another milestone in the career of the Argentine forward, who, having broken into Inter’s all-time top five scorers, now stands alone in fourth place with 164 goals, having surpassed Nerazzurri legend Sandro Mazzola.
