Italian football pundit Fabrizio Biasin has confirmed that Juventus have tried on numerous occasions in the past to sign Mauro Icardi from Inter.
Reports in recent weeks have suggested that the Bianconeri club could once again go in for the 27-year-old Argentine striker, who is currently out on loan at reigning French champions Paris Saint Germain.
PSG have an option to sign Icardi on a permanent basis from Inter for a sum of €70 million and reports have stated that Juventus will pursue a move for the former Barcelona academy player regardless of what PSG do with him.
The reports have suggested that Juventus could look to include a player or players plus cash in a deal for Icardi but it remains to be seen whether they will be dealing with arch rivals Inter or PSG.
Whilst in the French capital Icardi has made 31 appearances across all competitions to date, in which he has scored 20 goals and provided four assists.
“Icardi at Juve? Juve have tried to sign him several times in the past but they have always been told no as Icardi always wanted to continue at Inter,” Biasin explained in an interview with Italian radio station Radio Sportiva earlier on today.
