Icardi's wife & agent Wanda Nara drops big contract hint as Real Madrid hopes fade

Mauro Icardi's agent Wanda Nara has hinted that he is poised to sign a new contract at Inter Milan.

The Argentine has been heavily linked with an exit from the Serie A giants in recent months, having scored 119 goals in 200 games for the club.

Real Madrid are understood to be interested in securing the striker, having failed to replace the goals of Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer .

The Portuguese superstar moved to Juventus, and Real chose not replace him with a so-called 'Galactico' signing, instead acquiring Mariano Diaz from Lyon.

Icardi has a release clause of €110 million (£98m/$124m) but Inter are keen to tie him down to new terms to ensure that a bid does not materialise.
