Ultras: Icardi must leave Inter

By Football Italia staff

Inter ultras have issued a statement telling Mauro Icardi to leave the club. “His behaviour mustn’t be tolerated any longer.”

Inter boss Luciano Spalletti confirmed Icardi would be reinstated against Genoa on Wednesday, but the Curva Nord made it clear the striker was no longer welcome at San Siro.

“After an internal meeting, all the Curva Nord groups unanimously decided that the behaviour of the Nerazzurri No 9 mustn’t be tolerated any longer,” its statement read.

“The Nord believes Icardi has shown that he doesn’t possess the necessary character, not just for the captain’s armband but also for a united dressing room.

“With this release, we invite Inter to take the necessary measures as soon as possible to remove him from a squad who don’t seem to have the slightest intention of sharing the immediate path with him and the future, also putting our end of the season at risk.

“Qualifying for the Champions League without a project that puts the concept of the group at its heart, which Icardi clearly can’t be a part of, only means setting the stage for future failure.

“For us, the value of the team must come before personalities and those who want the media limelight.

“Therefore, the Nord’s position is that Icardi is no longer part of Inter and, from now on, will be treated accordingly.

“At Genoa let’s all stick together to build a future together and carry in our hearts the only thing that counts… Inter!”
