Inter Milan president Erick Thohir is adamant Mauro Icardi is not for sale.

Icardi's wife and agent, Wanda Nara, has spoken of a departure this past week.

But Thohir says: “It is with his ability and experience that we want to try and improve on last year's league position to qualify for the Champions League and go as far as we possibly can in the Europa League and Coppa Italia.

“The players involved in the Copa America and the Euros will be back in training again soon while Roberto Mancini, the owners and management will keep working to further strengthen our squad.

“There has also been a lot of talk about Mauro Icardi and I'd like to reiterate what our sporting director Piero Ausilio said just a few days ago: Mauro is a major asset for Inter, he's our captain and he is not for sale."
