Cannavaro: “Icardi rejected Tianjin as he very determined about what he wants to do in his future”

Speaking from his Tianjin’s Italy winter training base, coach Fabio Cannavaro spoke to Sky on the clubs various approaches for strikers including Mauro Icardi: “In he last two months many attackers were approached by my team, Diego Costa for example came to nothing, because I repeat my priority was Kalinic.  We thought we could’ve got Slimani from Leicester and if they had found a replacement at the end they would have sold, perhaps with a bit of a higher offer on our part. As for  Icardi  there was not even a deal because he was very determined about what he wants to do in his future. He called me and told me very calmly that he had just signed with Inter, that at Inter he was good and had a great view. I went to talk to Cavani, but the president of Paris Saint Germain told me that he was absolutely was not for sale.”
