Loud return to Serie A! Lazio preparing offer for star Argentine forward
Mauro Icardi could make a sensational return to Italian football as early as this summer.
Details: According to renowned insider Gianluca Di Marzio, Lazio are seriously targeting the signing of 33-year-old Argentine striker Mauro Icardi. The Biancocelesti management is actively in contact with the player's entourage and intends to make an official offer this week to speed up negotiations and outpace their rivals.
Currently, the Argentine is a free agent after his contract with Turkish side Galatasaray expired this summer. If the deal goes through, Icardi would return to Serie A six years after his departure—having previously played in the league for Sampdoria and Inter Milan, where he became captain and twice claimed the league's top scorer title.
It's worth noting that in the 2025/26 season, the Argentine striker made 47 appearances in all competitions for Galatasaray and scored 16 goals. Reputable portal Transfermarkt currently values the 33-year-old at 4 million euros.
