Lazio is looking for a striker to assign to Rino Gattuso and one of the ideas is Mauro Icardi. The Argentine is a suggestive option, especially for his past in Serie A and his experience at the highest levels. According to Gianluca Di Marzio, sporting director Fabiani has had contact with Icardi's entourage, sounding out the striker's availability for a transfer.

Icardi awaits Champions League opportunity, but considers Italy return

Icardi has not yet made a decision. He is waiting for an opportunity from a Champions League qualified club, but has not ruled out the possibility of returning to play in Italy.

Milan suggestion in case of Gimenez departure

Icardi's name had already circulated in Milan's orbit. The Argentine was indicated as a possible Milan suggestion in case of Santiago Gimenez's departure. For Milan, it was just a hypothesis, while Lazio has taken a concrete step by contacting his entourage. Icardi remains a name to follow on both fronts, with the Champions League potentially having a decisive weight in his choice.
