Original Title: Spalletti “Icardi’s weakness had a name: Wanda. She said that if people want Icardi to score more, Inter need better players who could help him. To avoid a war, I asked him to explain her words in front of all his teammates. But he replied that it wasn’t his wife Wanda speaking, but his agent Nara.”

“There was only one way to avoid a war in the dressing room: an apology from Icardi. It never arrived. It was an unmanageable situation. I had to take away his captain’s armband and give it to Handanovic. The club’s consensus was there. Icardi took it badly, very badly. In order not to lose the whole team, I lost Icardi — the man and the player.”
