Icardi to Juve: Wanda and Dybala's brother drop hints


30 May at 22:45
Amid rumors linking Mauro Icardo with a move to Juventus, two major hints have been dropped on social media this evening.

In fact, Juventus have reportedly offered Inter €40m plus Higuain for Icardi, which the Nerazzurri seem to be considering, although it's likely that they'll turn it down. However, with Icardi, there have been several rumors about him wanting to leave San Siro lately.

His wife dropped a hint on Twitter today as she published a waving emoji, perhaps saluting the Inter fans? Paolo Dybala's brother joined in on the fun as he tweeted a photo with two pictures of the players, Dybala and Icardi. Many fans commented on the photo, with one asking if they were going to play together at Juve, which Dybala's brother quickly denied.

This will bloat up the transfer market inflation even more i'd imagine
Yep. And there will be soem leftovers to pick up in Madrid.

But I've also semi fearful of who they'll target as a replacement. Allegri isn't the typical Real fit, but he's still the most successful coach in the last four years apart from Zidane.

Pretty sure they'll be considering Allegri too.

Allegri isn’t a Madrid manager. They hated Capello and Benitez and I can see them disliking Allegri too. Too tactical and too much of an authoritarian for the top stars liking imo.

Madrid seems to need softly-softly, big brother, relaxed type of “man managers” like Del Bosque, Ancelotti and Zidane.

I think Sarri would be perfect for them :agree: He is especially good with handling reserve players and rotating the squad. I'm sure he'll create a great atmosphere in the locker room.

I think Zidane is far from soft. In fact he is quite scary, because he has it all - brain, name , titles ... and to top it off is as ruthless as they come. You can see when he says something to a player - regardless which one - they are VERY concentrated on the topic and what he says.

In the Real wants to win it all. If you go for Mourinho, nothing prevents you from going for Allegri. Actually Real have seen at first hand, that the only coach to really trouble them in CL has been Allegri. I bet he is one their first targets.

Mourinho was another coach hated by the fans and players come to think of it. Frequently clashed with his top stars.

I don’t think they like managers like Allegri now. I reckon they’d be annoyed that Pochettino just signed a contract extension with Spurs. I heard they were after him as well.
