The lawyer of Mauro Icardi has been caught out when learning Inter Milan coach Luciano Spalletti won't consider him for Sunday's clash with Lazio.
Icardi was expected to be recalled after a 40-day stand-off with management.
“Since the day of Icardi's return to training, he has been at the full disposal of the squad, behaving professionally and following the steps worked out by me, CEO Beppe Marotta and President Steven Zhang in the interests of both Inter and the player," lawyer Nicoletti told ANSA.
“I was not informed as to the decision to leave Icardi out of the squad, so not knowing the reasons for it, I cannot comment on that.
“I spoke to Marotta daily, who always told me that everything was going positively."
