Inter Milan chief Marotta: Icardi future? Let's focus on present

Inter Milan chief Beppe Marotta insists no player is bigger than the club.

Mauro Icardi is again playing for Inter after a self-imposed exile since mid-February.

Marotta said, "He is an Inter player and has to play in the best way, so let's just talk about the present. There's time to consider the future.

“He's 26 years old, so still needs to grow up. I know that I made a lot of mistakes in my career that I wouldn't do in hindsight, because now I have experience, so players are the same."

During the warm-up for the 0-0 draw with Atalanta on Sunday, Icardi was greeted with utter indifference by the crowd.

“I don't expect any reaction from the fans, because the people understand the club comes first, the Nerazzurri colours, and we must be united to do what is best for Inter."
