Chelsea on alert as Inter stall on a new deal for Mauro Icardi

Can Icardi be a success in the Premier League?

Inter Milan captain and striker Mauro Icardi is yet to be offered a new deal by the club. This has been revealed by the Argentine's wife Wanda in Italian TV show Tiki Taka (report courtesy: The Sun).

Chelsea are desperately looking for a striker who they can depend on for the long-term. Alvaro Morata's impending departure to Atletico Madrid has raised further question marks about Chelsea's stance on signing a new striker.

Wanda Nara, Icardi's wife revealed,

"When the management at the club contact me, I'll respond to their request.

"Until now nobody from Inter has called me to further the negotiations. My telephone is always on and I answer every call I receive."

This comes as a major boost to Chelsea who have been keeping tabs on the 25-year-old.
