Mauro Icardi will leave Galatasaray in the January window and he has been offered to AC Milan, according to a report.
SportMediaset (via Calciomercato.com) report that Icardi will say goodbye to the Turkish club and would like to return to Italy, with his agent already at work offering his services to various clubs in view of the winter mercato.

An opportunity for Milan?
Icardi’s knee injury is a thing of the past, but with the presence of Victor Osimhen and Leroy Sané in the squad risks meaning he gets less playing time. Moreover, Galatasaray’s plan to sign a forward in January (like Ademola Lookman) and his deal expiring in June 2026 point to an exit.
This season, he has made 21 appearances, but only 800 minutes, starting six of them. He hasn’t lost his eye for goal, however, having scored eight times in the Turkish Super League.
This will therefore be Icardi’s last season at Galatasaray, and it’s not out of the question that he might leave as early as next month. His entourage have offered him to clubs in Italy, including Milan, Como and above all Roma.
They are just inquiries and nothing more, at least for now. However, there is one factor that – as reported in Argentina – is pushing Icardi toward a return to the Spanish LaLiga: his new partner would prefer to move to Spain, with Elche and Real Oviedo keen on exploring a move.
Luca Cohen reported earlier in the week that Icardi would actually be Massimiliano Allegri’s preference over Niclas Füllkrug, but the management are pushing ahead with the German.
I’d take him over Fullkrug. Proven Serie A player six months loan with option to buy.
Not only that. He’s ex inter di merda. You know how good those players were, usually.
Option to buy a player who runs out of contract in the summer? 😀
I would love to see Icardi get a chance on loan, although I realise he has a very high salary.
here it is… we’ve been waiting for this article!! Every year, like clockwork we are linked to Icardi. Next week, tune into an article on Milan wants Berardi.
Allegri should’ve said he wants Fullkrug and management would be going all in on Icardi…
Sign both if cheap. They are qualified for something lowkey lowball, moneyball, or their other balls whatsoever.
And how are you going to find minutes and games for them to play?
If they sign a striker, he will only play between 15 -25 minutes a game of the bench.
Santi will be sold and benched, so icardi will be first to play than fullkrug or vice versa depending on their fitness level.
Mario Icardi is far better than fulkrug…let get him..he understands the serial more than all these players Milan is going for..he has eyes on goal..
I prefer Icardi 100%. For the records, this is one of the best news I have heard about Milan transfer striker target. Just hope it’s true
