Icardi posted a video where he can be seen working out in the gym. The Argentine is on an exercise bike, doing ball exercises, and working on his injured knee.

The video is a repost from the page of Icardi's beloved, China Suárez. She supports her fiancé on the challenging road to recovery and encourages him with motivating phrases. She captioned the video with the words “Come on, just a little more. Efforts are always rewarded.”

China also added a lion emoji and yellow and red hearts, hinting at Turkish Galatasaray, which Icardi plays for.

Let's recall that Icardi has just begun intensive rehabilitation after tearing his cruciate ligaments last November. The footballer recently reported that he started jogging for the first time since the surgery and is now showing increased training loads.
