Lautaro Martinez scored his 159th goal for Inter Milan in last night’s Champions League victory over Royale Union SG.

According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, El Toro is now only two goals away from matching Sandro Mazzola’s tally.

Depending on his performance against Napoli, Lautaro Martinez could become Inter’s fourth top scorer this weekend.

Indeed, only two goals separate the 28-year-old from Mazzola’s record in the all-time charts.

Furthermore, he drew level with the legendary Giuseppe Meazza at 29 goals in European competitions.

Moreover, El Toro has emerged as the competition’s most prolific player in 2025.

Indeed, with 11 goals, he leads the charge, leaving superstars like Harry Kane and Kylian Mbappe behind.

Last night, he netted his third goal in two Champions League appearances this season, proving Cristian Chivu can always count on him in Europe.
