Galatasaray demands Mauro Icardi return to Türkiye immediately.

Mauro Icardi is going through a delicate moment in his relationship with Galatasaray. The club issued a strong ultimatum for allegedly not fulfilling the commitments he had made.

Additionally, the forward is once again in the media spotlight for ignoring a court order. This order established that his daughters should not have contact with his current partner, China Suárez, as reportedly requested by Wanda Nara.

Galatasaray's stance

During his appearance on Mitre Live, journalist Juan Etchegoyen revealed, citing anonymous sources, that the team's management "got fed up" with the player's situation in Argentina. This is especially due to the prolongation of his recovery, which they consider much longer than expected. For that reason, they believe it's time for the player to resume training with his teammates.

"I'm not a specialist, but you talk to specialists and many tell you the truth that Icardi, with the time he's been injured, should already be playing. I don't know what's happening, that he hasn't returned," Etchegoyen noted on the matter.

"Gradually, the Turkish club's directors are rebelling against Icardi and what they tell me is that if Mauro doesn't return to Istanbul in the coming days, they threaten to break the contractual bond," the journalist added.

He also provided new details about the context: "I'm informed of a last-minute meeting this morning very early in Türkiye, late at night in Argentina, where those deciding the European team's future finally decided to give Icardi an ultimatum for his bad behavior."

Etchegoyen recalled that after getting injured, Icardi received the green light to continue his rehabilitation in Argentina, accompanied by local specialists and his closest circle, including his daughters and his partner. However, that concession seems to have reached its limit. "Meanwhile, Galatasaray pays Icardi a fortune per month and they don't pay him a fortune per month for Icardi to go from club to club, to appear with a nice selfie with China Suárez, they're really not happy."

According to reports, the relationship between the player and the club is marked by growing tensions. "The vice president of Galatasaray named Ibrahim Hatipoğlu raised his voice in that meeting and reportedly already communicated to the player to decide what he wants to do."

Etchegoyen also shared what, according to his sources, was the club's direct message to the player: "'We won't wait any longer, we demand Icardi's immediate arrival in Türkiye' they say. They're fed up, they don't want to wait for him any longer and if he doesn't want to return to Istanbul, he should let them know."

Wanda Nara's opinion on Icardi's current situation

In recent statements to LAM (América TV), Wanda Nara referred to the current state of her ex-partner and father of her daughters, and stated that "he's at his worst moment."

Upon arriving from Brazil, the host assured that Mauro Icardi had been intending to leave professional soccer for some time, and that it was thanks to her support that he managed to join Galatasaray.
