Lautaro Martinez has said interest from Barcelona made him proud but outlined his commitment to Inter Milan.
Martinez was named as a potential transfer target for Barcelona as the Spanish champions sought to sign a centre-forward in the summer window.
Barcelona are understood to have made an approach for Martinez, who has scored 175 goals in 378 games for theSerie A side. The approach was turned down with Inter president Giuseppe Marotta insisting the two-time Capocannoniere winner was not for sale at any price.
Martinez has now opened up on the rumours, and said he intends to end his career at the San Siro.
"When these offers and calls come in, it is always a pleasure, because you work to stay at the top. The rumours were true, but I am very clear about my ideas: I wanted to stay here with my teammates and with these magnificent fans," Martinez told Sky Italia.
