A Look at Lautaro Martínez Personality
Lautaro Martínez’s old friend and sports psychologist, Cecilia Contarino, shared insights into his personality and habits.
Contarino said Martínez was brilliant and professional. He excelled in all subjects at school. However, he initially struggled to adapt to life at the academy residence. He told her he could continue playing at his club in Bahía Blanca. She asked him to think about whether he wanted to be “a lion’s tail or a mouse head.”
When he signed his first contract, she helped him find an apartment and buy everything he needed. She said he often arranged meals with teammates and invited her to cook. When she opened his fridge, she found only water and light food. He did not drink soda or eat chocolate.
She said he is smart and knows how to resolve conflicts. If he cannot resolve something, he seeks help.
Before he left for Italy, the club wanted him to sign 200 shirts. They did not dare to ask him, but he did not hesitate. He signed all 200 shirts, one by one.
