Inter Milan skipper and contract rebel Mauro Icardi is set to return to the starting lineup after a long gap. The player was dropped from the squad over problems regarding wage demands. He was stripped of the captain’s armband as well. However, manager Luciano Spaletti has confirmed that the player is set to make a comeback into the side.
Speaking to the media, the Inter manager said, “The conditions are now right for Mauro to help the team again. He’ll play from the start because he’s displayed the right reaction. He’s trained well in the past few days, and if a player is in the squad they’re able to lend the team a hand. Blood, sweat and tears are needed when you play for our colours.”
He added, “Mauro’s able to drag the team forward when he’s in it. From the outside, no. In these last few training sessions and without sending messages on social media, he’s regained his place in the squad.”
