World Cup key for Como’s Martin Baturina as Premier League teams circle | OneFootball

Throughout the second half of last season, Como saw winger Martin Baturina grow in stature in Serie A. The Croatian will soon play at the World Cup and is already attracting attention from English clubs.

Get Italian Football News have previously looked at how the attacker has a big future ahead of him. That has apparently come true.

Gianluca di Marzio has reported that attention around Baturina has only grown. Two Premier League clubs, whose names unknown for now, are keen on him and are also ready to make offers between €50 million and €55 million.

Not just them, even Bayern Munich are monitoring the situation and their attention has only grown in the last few weeks.

Como’s stance is quite firm, as things stand. They wouldn’t sell Baturina unless clubs offer a fee worth €80 million. This is explained by his importance to Cesc Fabregas’ system, which has brought a lot out of the 23-year-old, whose skillset relies a lot on free movement and unpredictability in the final third.

World Cup could be key

Baturina has been called up to the Croatian national team and he has already been an important part of the side in recent years. But he is now at a point in his career where attention will only deservedly grow, considering how Como operate as a club and bring more out of players of his ilk.

Good performances at the global stage will attract more eyeballs and a send a message to potential suitors that he is the real deal. As a result, clubs will also be willing to pay more than €50 million for him.
