Inter prolific young striker Mauro Icardi is certainly a hot prospect in the market nowadays, with 27 goals in 55 appearances for Inter he is set to have his most successful season till now, he spoke to The Daily Record:
“If the rumours about Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool were real, I would be honoured, because they are big clubs, I’m not interested in rumours, what counts is winning with Inter, as I’m already in a great team where I can win something important.”
“The media call me the new Messi? It is a great honour, but it is not a label that I can accept, Messi is the greatest player in football and will be so forever, he and I are good friends. It would be a dream to play with him in the Argentine national team.”
“People compare me with Batistuta and I look up to him, I have good technique and shooting and I think I look a lot like him.”
“I would certainly like to play in the Champions League, it’s what every player wants and it would give me a boost towards wearing the shirt of Argentina, we have not lost hope of qualifying for the Champions League, but we must be realistic as it will be difficult through the League, Our best bet is winning the Europa League.”
