Icardi Talks About His Future: 'I Miss Italy So Much'

Mauro Icardi, whose contract with Galatasaray has ended, has reportedly not yet found a new club and his future remains uncertain. Speaking to the Italian press, the 33-year-old striker said he had received offers but preferred to wait rather than accept a project he was not fully convinced by.

Asked whether he would return to Inter, Icardi said he was open to the idea, but stressed that mutual trust and a shared goal were essential. He said he had captained his former club and wanted to end his career there in a different way.

Saying that he misses Italy very much, Icardi explained that he had developed both as a person and as a footballer there. He added that he would like to return when an exciting project and the chance to build something important come along.

Earlier claims that he could return to Galatasaray had surfaced. His agent, Elio Pino, had called those claims contrary to journalistic ethics and denied them. Icardi recorded 77 goals and 25 assists in 134 matches in the red and yellow shirt. During his four seasons at the club, he won four consecutive Süper Lig titles, along with one Turkish Cup, one Turkish Super Cup and one Süper Lig Golden Boot.
