The Argentinian international has endured a difficult spell with Inter Milan in recent weeks, failing to register a single goal involvement in the Nerazzurri\u2019s defeats by AC Milan and Atletico Madrid.<\/span><\/p>\n Martinez was also substituted in both of these matches as Inter suffered consecutive defeats, but the 28-year-old silenced any criticism during Inter\u2019s latest Serie A outing.<\/span><\/p>\n Cristian Chivu\u2019s side secured 2-0 victory over Pisa on November 31st, as Martinez picked up the MOTM award after scoring both goals and taking his overall tally to eight goal contributions in 13 league appearances (6G + 2A).<\/span><\/p>\n This victory kept the Nerazzurri within a point of table-toppers AC Milan, as the Rossoneri earned a narrow victory on MD13 \u2013 despite <\/span>Massimiliano Allegri\u2019s dismissal against Lazio.<\/span><\/p>\n Maintaining their place in third was key for Inter and Martinez\u2019s brace served as a reminder that the Argentine is still one of the best strikers in Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n Following the victory over Pisa, the 28-year-old was asked about the criticism and his future with Inter, which saw Martinez push for multiple years with the Nerazzurri.<\/span><\/p>\n Martinez said: <\/span>\u201cI work for myself, for Inter, and for my family, so I let those outside that group talk all they want. I am happy for the team, for my family, and for myself. I work for Inter and that\u2019s all.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n \u201cI hope (to stay) for a long time, I have many years on my contract and people love me here. The team comes first of all, Inter must win, we\u2019ve been challenging for every trophy for many years now. People outside can talk, but we must focus on lifting Inter as high as possible.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n However, Martinez\u2019s brace will not stop Inter\u2019s ambitions in the January window, as Cristian Chivu is still looking to bring in some reinforcements for the remainder of this season.<\/span><\/p>\n The Nerazzurri brought in Ange-Yoan Bonny, Luis Henrique, Andy Diouf, Petar Sucic, Aleksandar Stankovic and Manuel Akanji during the summer transfer window \u2013 but Chivu is hoping to add more firepower in 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n Signing a striker to compete with Martinez is high on the Inter manager\u2019s list of priorities, as Marucs Thuram and Ange-Yoan Bonny have struggled with injuries this season.<\/span><\/p>\n Inter had been linked with Juventus striker Jonathan David after his recent struggles in Turin, but the<\/span> Canadian has attracted LaLiga interest<\/span> and the Nerazzurri may look elsewhere.<\/span><\/p>\n Another candidate for the Serie A side is Manchester United star Joshua Zirkzee, as the Dutchman has failed to meet expectations in England.<\/span><\/p>\n The Red Devils star was on target during his latest Premier League outing, scoring the equalizer in United\u2019s 2-1 win over Crystal Palace \u2013 getting the better of another Inter Milan target in Marc Guehi.<\/span><\/p>\nInter Milan Still Considering January Additions<\/b><\/h2>\n
