Inter Milan captain Lautaro Martinez has endured a false start to the 2024/25 campaign, losing his signature scoring touch.
According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, several factors have affected the Argentine’s fall from grace.
El Toro soaked up the limelight as Inter’s headline performer last term.
Indeed, he won the Capocannoniere and MVP awards for his incredible scoring exploits in 2023/24.
However, his form has fallen off a cliff this season.
Stuck at five from 15 Serie A games, Martinez boasted 14 this time last year, testifying to his underwhelming form.
But before jumping the gun, it’s essential to consider that he is still this team’s leading figure.
Martinez’s form in front of goal has plummeted.
However, his work ethic and willingness to sacrifice for the team remain commendable.
On top of that, his below-par scoring output has already handed Inter nine points in Serie A.
Unlike some recent seasons, the 27-year-old has become more involved in the build-up.
That preparedness to drop back and help out in link-up play has derailed his scoring prospects.
Meanwhile, Marcus Thuram has laced up his scoring boots this term.
After a phenomenal maiden season at Giuseppe Meazza, the Frenchman has picked up where he left off this year.
