Stat – Inter Milan Captain Only Shining Light In Disappointing Serie A Trend | OneFootball

Inter Milan talisman Lautaro Martinez is on the verge of winning another Capocannoniere award in Serie A despite an injury-hit season.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, El Toro remains the only shining light in an otherwise lackluster Serie A campaign.

Cristian Chivu is one step away from winning the Scudetto in his first season in charge of the Nerazzurri.

In addition to boasting a seven-point lead over second-placed AC Milan, Inter have netted a league-high 64 goals.

That’s one more than they made at this stage of last season, highlighting a slight attacking improvement under Chivu.

Furthermore, Chivu’s charges have bagged at least 14 goals more than any other team in Serie A this term.

Inter Milan Captain Lautaro Martinez Stands Out in Bleak Serie A Season

Serie A has produced 683 goals so far this season — 62 fewer than at the same stage of the 2024/25 campaign and 154 fewer than in 2020/21.

Moreover, it’s been ten years since the league last yielded fewer than 700 goals this deep into the season.

It’s also worth noting that seven players had hit double digits at this stage of last season.

However, only Lautaro Martinez has scored 10+ goals in Serie A this term, underlining the Argentine’s greatness in an otherwise low-scoring campaign.
