The man for the big occasions and goalscorer supreme, Icardi's stock has never been higher. The brightest light in what has been a dark couple of years for the Nerazzurri, his record of 113 goals in 198 games for Inter Milan is nothing short of sensational.

Intelligent, deadly, brilliant at holding the ball up and bringing in wingers and midfielders, the Argentine international has been one of the leading goalscorers in the Serie A. He has been named the Capocannoniere (top scorer in the league) twice.

His style of play has become more nuanced in recent years. He no longer drifts all over the pitch as he used to in his younger days. He stays more in the opponent's area now where he can conserve his energy and make the most impact.

He would be a dream signing as his world-class quality would fit right into Sarri's system. The midfielders will love to play with a striker of his quality as his razor-sharp finishing will ensure that their efforts won't be in vain (as has been happening with Morata).

Inter Milan will do all they can to keep their captain and biggest asset. The asking price could be something in the region of the fee; £166m PSG paid to AS Monaco for Kylian Mbappe.
