The fact that Mr Lautaro Martines he was left out of the nominations for the prize awarded annually by FIFA to the best football player of the year!
The Argentinian striker has no hopes of winning this particular award, despite coming off an excellent season for him, during which he helped the Inter to reach the title in Serie A, but also the Argentine national team to lift the Copa America!
In the framework of the announcement of the candidates by FIFA, the president of Inter, Bebe Marotaexpressed his strong dissatisfaction with the absence of “El Toro”, describing the decision as incomprehensible and disappointing, for a footballer who proved his great value.
What the Inter president said in detail:
“It is truly incomprehensible and disappointing that a player who has had an impressive season and contributed so much to the success of his team and his country is left out of the nominations. He helped Inter to achieve a historic goal and his national team to win the Copa America, being their top scorer.
Lautaro proved his worth, both with his stats and his impact in crucial games. This lack of recognition does not reflect the importance of such an athlete. This exclusion seems to ignore not only the numbers and hits he had, but also the impact on decisive matches. That’s a bad sign, players who stand out like that should be rewarded.”.
