Mauro Icardi’s Agent Discloses Decision-Making Process Behind His Move to Galatasaray

Icardi Opts for Loyalty Over Lucrative Offer

Mauro Icardi’s representative has shared details about the Argentina forward’s choice to turn down an extremely lucrative contract to sign with Galatasaray.

The offer came in 2023, coinciding with the striker’s departure from PSG to the Turkish club.

Key Insights from Icardi’s Agent

“Icardi declined a compelling proposal from Saudi Arabia that would have earned him over €120 million net across three years. He felt a deep connection with the fans, which influenced his decision to remain loyal to the club,” stated Icardi’s agent, George Gardi, in a conversation with Sky Italia.

Today, two years later, the former Inter Milan forward continues to be a crowd favorite at Galatasaray.
