Mauro Icardi Thriving at PSG, Wants to Stay After Loan

PARIS (AP) – Things are going so well for Mauro Icardi at Paris Saint-Germain that he's already thinking about staying next season.

Some contrast from last year, when he was embroiled in a dispute with Inter Milan so bitter he even sued the club.

The Italian team loaned Icardi to PSG this season, but few observers would have expected him to succeed to the extent he has with 17 goals in 19 games so far. Only France striker Kylian Mbappe has scored more than him.

PSG has the option to make the loan deal permanent and Icardi, playing his part in a rampant attack which has scored 29 goals in the past six matches, appears to welcome a long-term move.
