Inter are unsure how to react to Paris Saint Germain’s request for a discount on Argentine striker Mauro Icardi, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Rome based newspaper Corriere dello Sport.
The report details how the Nerazzurri want €70 million for the 27-year-old’s signature, the figure agreed upon between the two clubs last summer. PSG themselves have asked for a discount, highlighting the difficult financial situation they are experiencing due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic.
Icardi had a €110 million release clause in his contract, the report continues, and so Inter’s request of €70 million is already a significant devaluation. The Nerazzurri want to avoid a situation where Icardi returns to Milan, as then it will be known that the club will take a discounted figure in order to get him off their books.
The 27-year-old has made 31 appearances across all competitions so far this season, scoring 20 goals and providing four assists in that time.
