Transfer: PSG was Icardi’s last option

Mauro Icardi’s wife and agent, Wanda Nara, has claimed the striker’s loan move to Paris Saint-Germain, was an “ace up her sleeve”.

Icardi secured a season-long switch to PSG from Inter Milan on deadline day, following much speculation over his future since he had been stripped of the captaincy at San Siro in January.

He had been linked with Juventus, Napoli, Monaco and Atletico Madrid, but agreed a one-year contract extension that keeps him tied to Inter until 2022.

It is however understood the Serie A club has given PSG a reported €70million option to buy Icardi.

Nara says she always had the switch to Paris lined up, even though it is not the ideal scenario for her.

“If I waited until the last moment, it’s because I had an ace up my sleeve.

“Nobody knew, not even the kids. Mauro packed a small suitcase and left the rest to me.

“The kids go to school in Italy, so we’ll live between Milan and Paris. Of the three options we had, PSG was the worst for me, because I have to go back to live in Milan with the kids.

“But I thought of what was best for him. There were many important Italian clubs who wanted him and it would’ve been easier,” Nara told Argentine show Morfi Telefe.
