It\u2019s reported now by Sportitalia chief Pedull\u00e0 that Juve approached Galatasaray to ask after Icardi.<\/p>\n

It comes after the two teams were paired in the Champions League play-offs, so Spalletti praised the Argentine in his press conference yesterday, calling Icardi \u201cone of the best finishers I ever worked with.\u201d<\/p>\n

They were together at Inter and that was also the last time the centre-forward was in Serie A, leaving for Paris Saint-Germain in a \u20ac50m transfer in the summer of 2020.<\/p>\n

He turns 33 later this month and his contract with Galatasaray only runs to June 30, so he ought to be available for quite a low price.<\/p>\n

The striker scored 10 goals with two assists in 29 competitive games this season, having recovered from a torn anterior cruciate ligament in November 2024.<\/p>\n

Icardi was already linked with a Serie A switch in December for Como, Milan or Roma.<\/a><\/p>\n
