Mauro Emanuel Icardi Rivero (born 19 February 1993) is an Argentine footballer who plays for Internazionale as a striker.
Club career
Early career
Icardi was born in Rosario, Argentina and moved to Spain's Canary Islands when he was 6. He began his football career with Vecindario in Gran Canaria, and scored over 500 goals in their youth categories.
Barcelona
In 2008, he was disputed over by Barcelona and Real Madrid, after offers from Valencia, Sevilla, Espanyol, Deportivo La Coruña, Arsenal and Liverpool. Barcelona won the race for Icardi, and signed with him until 2013.[1]
Icardi joined the Catalan club at the start of 2008–09 season and was included on the U-17 team. He was promoted to the U-19 team the following season before joining Sampdoria on loan in January 2011. Icardi later stated that leaving Barcelona was not a bad decision, convinced that his decision to move on was the right one.[2]
Sampdoria
On 11 January 2011, Sampdoria confirmed Icardi had signed with the club[3] on loan[4] until the end of the season. After a successful six-month loan for Samp, scoring 13 goals in 19 games with Primavera team, the Italian side utilised the option to buy Icardi for €400,000 in July 2011, signing a three-year deal.[4][5]
On 12 May 2012, he made his first-team debut, against Juve Stabia, after coming off the bench to replace Bruno Fornaroli on the 75th minute of the match. Ten minutes later, Icardi scored his first professional goal to win the match 2–1 for Sampdoria.[6]
On 6 January 2013, he scored two goals against Juventus in Sampdoria's 2–1 upset at Juventus Stadium.[7] On 27 January 2013, he scored four goals in a six goal thrashing of fellow strugglers Pescara, lifting the Genoese side clear of the Serie A relegation zone.[8]
Internazionale
In late April, it was announced that Icardi would become an Internazionale player before the beginning of the 2013–14 season.[9] The deal was also later confirmed by Sampdoria board.[10] He scored his first goal for Inter in their 1–1 pre-season friendly draw with German Bundesliga club Hamburger SV,[11] netting after less than two minutes in the field and being assisted by Fredy Guarín.[12]
On 25 August Icardi made his Inter official debut, coming on as a second-half substitute in a 2–0 home success over Genoa, hitting the crossbar late in the game;[13] he scored his first league goal for the Nerazzurri on 14 September, netting the first of a 1–1 home draw against Juventus, after coming on as a substitute in the 73rd minute.[14]
Due to injury, Icardi missed most of the games of the first part of the season,[15] only returning to first-team matches in February. He also netted twice in a match against Bologna and Sampdoria in the beginning of April, taking his tally up to eight.
Icardi was in form at the start of the 2014–15 campaign, netting three goals in his first two matches (against Stjarnan in UEFA Europa League). He scored a hat-trick in a 7–0 win over Sassuolo on 14 September 2014.[16]
International career
In August 2012, Icardi made his debut for the Argentina under-20 in a match against Germany.
In February 2013, Icardi stated his wish to play for the Argentina senior team, saying, "I'm Argentine, I feel Argentine, and I've always dreamed of wearing the shirt of my nation. To actually do that would be the maximum for me."[17]
On 15 October 2013 he played his first game for the main squad, coming on as an 82nd-minute substitute for Augusto Fernández in a 2–3 FIFA World Cup qualifier loss away to Uruguay.[18]
Personal life
Icardi is married to Argentine media personality Wanda Nara. Nara was married to Icardi's former Sampdoria teammate Maxi López but the couple split after her relationship with Icardi was exposed. She and López began divorce proceedings in December 2013. Nara and Icardi subsequently married on 27 May 2014, not long after the divorce was finalised, at a small ceremony in Buenos Aires, Argentina.[19] During the April 2014 Serie A match between Sampdoria and Inter, López notably refused to shake Icardi's hand, leading the press to dub the game "Wanda derby".[20]
