Mauro Icardi will not stop. With two goals from Empoli, he has reached the heights of Jair and Alvaro Recoba having scored 53 goals in the league in the nerazzurro shirt and a total of 58 in all competitions. Discrete numbers in short, seeing as the player to reach – in both Serie A and Europa League – for the Argentine is Ronaldo in the rankings. The pace of Icardi hasn’t slowed and in Inter’s case this season he has been a part of 100% of the goals scored. He has scored 6 out of the 7 goals Inter have scored and provided the assist for Perisic to earn a 2-1 lead against Juventus. But it does not end here; Maurito has also scored 63 goals in the Serie A by 23 years old, 53 of which were in his 96 games with Inter and the top goal scorer of the league has scored 6 goals in 5 match days, which puts Icardi ahead of Bacca and Callejon who trail by one. The captain of Inter scores in every way, but especially with his head: between last year and this year he has scored 5 goals by header (4 in the current season).
