Barca are in the market for a new No9 as they look for a long-term replacement for Luis Suarez.
The Uruguayan turns 34 on his next birthday and believe Martinez is the perfect man to fill his boots.
Martinez, 22, has been in brilliant form this campaign with 16 goals in 28 appearances across Serie A and the Champions League this season.
According to reports in Italy, Barcelona have already agreed terms with Martinez and will offer him the same salary as Antoine Griezmann.
It is claimed they are also readying an offer believed to be around £60million for the Argentina international that could see players heading in the opposite direction.
Midfielders Carles Alena and Arthur Melo have been linked with a move in the opposite direction while Antonio Conte could also move for Atalanta striker Duvan Zapata.
Manchester United have also been linked with an interest in the ex-Racing Club forward Martinez.
However, they look set to miss out on Martinez with Barcelona wasting no time in making their move.
