Inter Milan vice-president Javier Zanetti has acknowledged that he does not want Lautaro Martinez to leave San Siro this summer.
The 21-year-old contributed six goals and two assists in Serie A last season, which has allegedly resulted in interest from Barcelona.
The Catalan giants are said to be prepared to bid £100m for the Argentina international, although Zanetti says that no offers have been made for his compatriot.
Zanetti told No Toda Pasa: "No offers from Barcelona came for Lautaro Martínez. I hope he stays with us for a long time because he is an important player and he makes me very happy.
"What he did with us in his first season was very good."
Martinez - whose contract runs until 2023 - has netted twice in four appearances for Argentina at the Copa America.
