Report Suggests Icardi Won’t Play For Inter Again Unless He Regains Captaincy

Mauro Icardi is still yet to offer an apology to his teammates in wake of the events of the past week, at least according to a report from Milan based newspaper Corriere della Sera.

The Argentine striker was stripped of the captaincy and then refused the call-up for Inter’s match against Rapid Vienna and also sat out of Sunday’s 2-1 win over Sampdoria.

The report goes on to claim that Icardi will not set foot on the pitch again unless he is given the captain’s armband back – although the chances of that appear very slim at the moment.

His wife/agent Wanda Icardi has not been far from the controversy and is in fact convinced that Inter have made their mind up and will sell the 26-year-old come the Summer transfer window.

This season the prolific frontman has made 28 appearances across all competitions for the Nerazzurri and has scored 15 goals in the process.R
