Inter Milan ultras refuse to forgive Mauro Icardi after his captaincy was confirmed on Monday.
Comments in Icardi's autobiography have led to a split between the captain and ultras.
"In principle we're against this decision, we need to see what the club's reasons are," a spokesman for the Ultra Group, Franco Caravita, told SportItalia.
“If we have a problem then we'll evaluate that problem.
“The relationship with Icardi? After what was written in the book, something that was written freely and not interpreted in an article or said instinctively under pressure, the relationship can't be mended.
“These words were too serious, and I'd add that we're hostages to these characters, who ask for millionaire contracts and then behave like spoiled children. You can't mock a fan and treat him like an idiot just because you can kick a ball, not to mention that this book was written based on falsehoods.
“Icardi the player is dead to us. We hope he'll withdraw this book and then that would probably close the matter for us. Until the day before yesterday he greeted me, and hid that he wanted me killed. There are some things in life that a man can't bear.
“So if he's a real man he'll withdraw the book, but given the attitude he has I don't think he will. The decisions have been taken now, so even though we don't accept what has been decided, we have to make the best of a bad situation. All we can do is take our unconditional love around Italy.
“We understand that there's a corporate power vacuum right now, on the 29th the board of directors will meet so we'll see then. We were pleased by the words of [vice-President Javier] Zanetti, which came from the experience he had and is having with us.
“He has always respected the fans, even if we've had some delicate moments with him. He looked at the reality and we faced each other in a frank and honest way. We don't expect to go out and about with the players, we just want a simple and loyal relationship.
“If Icardi scores, he scores for Inter. So we'll thank Inter, not him."
