Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte is chasing Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for the summer market.

Tuttosport says Conte has identified Aubameyang as the player he wants to replace Lautaro Martinez, with the Argentine expected to move to Barcelona at season's end.

Aubameyang has less than 18 months to run on his existing contract and has suspended negotiations with Arsenal over a new arrangement.

Conte is watching developments closely and is quietly confident he can tempt the Gabon international back to Milan.

Aubameyang and brother Willy both kicked off their pro careers with AC Milan.
