Speculation over Icardi’s future is currently rife and a bid of around €40 million could be enough to lure the Nerazzurri into sanctioning a sale.
Palermo star Paulo Dybala would be their dream target, according to Tuttosport, but they have another four attacking possibilities named on a burgeoning transfer shortlist in the shape of Paris Saint-Germain forward Ezequiel Lavezzi, Boca Juniors youngster Jonathan Calleri, Fiorentina striker Khouma Babacar and Marseille’s Andre-Pierre Gignac, whose contract expires in June.
Also, there is an ongoing theory which suggests the Serie A side may choose to spend any income received for 22-year-old Icardi on Manchester City attacking midfielder Yaya Toure, should the English club agree to sell at a comparative value.
Other players said to be of interest to Roberto Mancini this summer includes right-back Sime Vrsaljko of Sassuolo, Borussia Dortmund left wing-back Marcel Schmelzer and yet another full-back Matteo Darmian from Torino.
