Real Madrid are looking for a replacement for Karim Benzema.

The 35-year-old is being linked with a mouthwatering move to Saudi Arabia.

According to a report by Mario Cortegana, Real Madrid ‘have inquired’ about Inter Milan striker Lautaro Martinez.

Real Madrid made the inquiry to know if the Argentine will be available this summer.

Inter Milan vice-president Javier Zanetti has however insisted that Lautaro Martinez isn’t for sale.

Zanetti says: “I’m not worried because I see what he represents.

“We haven’t heard anything at all about the idea that Real Madrid are interested in him.

“He has an immense mentality. He carries respect on and off the pitch.”
