Last Sunday, Icardi’s goal against Udinese proved that Maurito is doing his job, which generated rumours around him, news today states that Thohir is open to the idea of selling him in exchange for €25 million to finance the campaign of strengthening the squad in winter in line with the expectations of Mancini. FcInterNews.it, which probed sources close to the attacker wanted to clarify the rumours while his contract talks are in stand-by after weeks of speculation of all kinds.

First, it is almost impossible for Icardi to leave Inter in January, despite his many suitors ranging from La Liga (Atletico Madrid last summer came to offer €22 million for him) and the Premier League (Liverpool, Tottenham, Chelsea and, new entry, Arsenal). The two parties will meet in the beginning of next month to close a renewal of the contract, I can’t guarantee that it will be for many years, then I can’t rule out a sale in June also, in the hope that his tally of goals this season increases which will also increase his value. However, the starting price would be €30 million, certainly not the 25 assumed earlier.

Regarding the extension of his contract, the situation is rather fluid. The player, which now receives €1 million, would like to earn like his more-contributing-to-the-team team mates Therefore, the demand comes close to €3 million, not far from what Inter proposed. The image rights issue will be solved, and will be discussed calmly, as Icardi already has contracts in place on a personal level.
