Icardi will renew Inter contract – Nara

Mauro Icardi’s agent and wife Wanda Nara said the Inter captain will sign a new contract, while insisting “there are no problems” with the Serie A club.

Icardi’s contract does not expire until 2021 but the star forward has been linked to Real Madrid and Manchester United after Nara reiterated the Argentina international is nowhere near a renewal.

However, Nara appeared to backtrack on the future of Icardi, who has also reportedly attracted interest from Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain.

“We’ll renew, there will be a new contract, don’t worry,” Nara told Striscia La Notizia on Canale 5.

“There is no distance, there are no problems. Of course Inter want to keep Icardi.”
