Wanda insists Icardi PSG move was always option

The wife and agent of Mauro Icardi insists she was always in control of his move to PSG.

The striker left Inter Milan for Paris on deadline day.

“If I waited until the last moment, it's because I had an ace up my sleeve," Icardi's wife and agent Wanda told Morfi Telefe.

“Nobody knew, not even the kids. There was never a serious proposal from Boca Juniors."

Icardi has now begun training in Paris, but Wanda remains in their Milan home overlooking San Siro.

“Mauro packed a small suitcase and left the rest to me. The kids go to school in Italy, so we'll live between Milan and Paris. Of the three options we had, PSG was the worst for me, because I have to go back to live in Milan with the kids.

“But I thought of what was best for him. There were many important Italian clubs who wanted him and it would've been easier."
