Arsene Wenger is preparing an audacious player-plus-cash move for striker Mauro Icardi. Luca Pessina of La Gazzetta dello Sport reported on Monday morning that Arsenal could splash £29million and also throw their first-choice striker Olivier Giroud at Inter Milan to secure the services of their skipper.
The 23-year-old striker has been linked with a move away from San Siro for some time now, with his wife and agent, Wanda Nara, desperately attempting to engineer an improved contract all summer. Suning Commerce Group, who took over Inter in June, are eager to retain the services of their captain as they eye at Champions League qualification next season. However, a player-plush-cash deal involving France’s first-choice centre-forward striker may convince the Italian club to sanction the transfer.
