Inter Milan hero Beppe Bergomi has welcomed Mauro Icardi's sale to PSG.

On Sunday Icardi was signed permanently by PSG, for a reported €50m plus €8m in bonuses – on top of the €13m paid for the loan spell.

“Inter had already made their decision on Icardi last year," club legend and 1982 World Cup winner Bergomi told Sky Sport Italia.

“Considering the way the situation had evolved, I think PSG represent the best choice for all concerned. Icardi has joined a club that doesn't have the prestige of Inter, but it has won the Ligue 1 title and can technically still win the Champions League.

“Meanwhile, Romelu Lukaku has done a fantastic job of replacing Icardi, so everyone is happy."
