Only PSG can compete with Inter’s Lukaku-Lautaro forward line - Vieri

Former Inter striker Christian Vieri believes that only Paris Saint-Germain have a strikeforce that can compete with his former club’s pairing of Lautaro Martinez and Romelu Lukaku.

Lukaku, 26, has 21 goals and four assists in 31 games across all competitions so far this season, while Lautaro, 22, has managed 16 goals and four assists in 28 appearances.

And Vieri believes the combination of the duo’s skill-sets and age profiles is near-unmatched across Europe, and hails Nerazzurri head coach Antonio Conte for bringing the best out of the pair.

"Lukaku is a pure centre-forward, devastating, physically strong, with a surprisingly delicate left foot,” Vieri said to Gazzetta dello Sport.
