“A classic Inter victory like the good old days. Letting the opponent apply pressure until they are out of steam and then strike hard”. This is the analysis of Sebastiano Vernazza of La Gazzetta dello Sport, after the continous success of Luciano Spalletti. “The first and the last goal had Mauro Icardi as the author, goals from far away typical for great strikers like Boninsegna, Altobelli, Serena, Vieri, Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic and Milito. Now Icardi can enjoy at least one night at the top of the strikers in Serie A. So far he has scored 15 times, more than half of all Inter’s goals this season. Maybe it is time to increase his buy-out clause at 110 million of euros. This price means that teams like Real Madrid and Bayern Münich will come knocking at the door with their fat wallets. It is easy to sell a top striker but it is hard to find an equal player to replace him. Inter should give Icardi what he wants and then build the team around him, after all we are talking about a guy who only is 24 years old, his best years are still to come”.
