In two separate interviews, legendary Inter attacker Sandro Mazzola spoke out on the Mauro Icardi situation:
Firstly, speaking to Gazzetta dello Sport, Mazzola said,
“I believe that the club should take action immediately and maybe end the relationship with the player after this season. I do not remember how old I was when I wrote my first biography, but I was certainly more than 23. It was right to give him the captain’s armband because he had to realise how important he was but I fear that his acts have cancelled out this sentiment. I do not know his family situation, but I’m sure he is not well advised because otherwise he would have acted differently.”
He then spoke with TuttoMercatoWeb and admits the ordeal could’ve been handed better,
“I was disappointed in Icardi, as I would never do such a thing. Of course, I was sad to see these things at the stadium. I understand the fans but I think there was another way to deal the situation. The captaincy? Icardi should be stripped of it, making it available to his teammates.”
