CHELSEA have joined Tottenham in the race to sign young Inter Milan forward Lautaro Martinez.
The Blues are currently priced at 5/1 with Betfair to secure the services of the Argentina striker, but the bookies fancy Spurs to have the edge over them, priced at 3/1.

The striker signed for Inter Milan from Argentinian side Racing Club in the summer of 2018 as a 20-year-old.
The 24-year-old has scored 74 goals and 24 assists in 180 games for the Italian side, and in 2021 helped the club to their first league title in 11 years.
He's also won the Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italiana during his time with the club.
The Argentinian scored three goals on the way to helping his national side lift last summer's Copa America, their first major trophy since 1993, and bagged a goal and an assist in this month's CONMEBOL-UEFA Cup of Champions rout of Italy at Wembley.

The striker worked really well with Antonio Conte when the two were together at Inter, playing in every league game and racking up 27 goal contributions in the title-winning season under Conte.
The Italian manager is rumoured to fancy rekindling the relationship with Martinez, and Betfair place Spurs as the favourites to sign the striker should he leave Milan this summer.
It's thought it could cost as much as £77m to prise the striker away from the Italian side.
Following the news that Inter Milan could be interested in bringing Romelu Lukaku back from Chelsea, it's thought that the Blues could be interested in bringing Martinez the other way.
Betfair are offering odds of 5/1 for the Argentinian to be playing at Stamford Bridge next season.
