Real Madrid has been offered striker Mauro Icardi by Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), according to sources. Depending on the offers, Icardi is expected to leave PSG in January or next summer.
PSG has made the Argentine available to a number of clubs, including Real Madrid. Los Blancos may be looking for a replacement for Luka Jovic and Mariano Diaz, so this is an intriguing offer. Neither player has seen much action at the Bernabeu, and they appear to be on their way out.
Icardi's form, on the other hand, hasn't been good enough to warrant a move to a team like Real Madrid. This season, he has only three goals in 16 appearances for the French giants. His personal life has also been well documented, and it has had a noticeable impact on his on-field performance. Icardi might leave Real Madrid and join a number of other clubs that are interested in signing him. Newcastle United, for example, is a Premier League club. They are now the wealthiest club on the planet, thanks to a recent change in ownership, and could be willing to pay Icardi a substantial contract.
Newcastle, on the other hand, has failed to establish form in the Premier League this season, with only one win. This might dissuade players like Mauro Icardi from joining the Magpies.
Real Madrid were connected with Icardi a few seasons ago, but a deal never materialised. The Argentine's form has deteriorated dramatically since then. Karim Benzema, on the other hand, has accelerated his speed even further.
As a result, it appears that Real Madrid will reject PSG's bid to sign Icardi. Los Blancos are particularly interested in PSG star Kylian Mbappe.
This summer, Real Madrid made a €200 million approach for the 22-year-old, but the Parisian club turned it down. Mbappe's contract with PSG is up in a few months, and it is doubtful that the Frenchman will extend it. Mbappe is expected to sign a pre-contract with Real Madrid in January and join the club the following summer.
For long years, the Spanish club has stated their desire to bring Mbappe to the Bernabeu. As a result, it appears that it will only be a matter of time before we see the PSG star in Real Madrid colours.
