Reports: Napoli raise Icardi offer
By Football Italia staff
Multiple reports say Napoli have raised their Mauro Icardi offer, but there’s disagreement on by how much.
The Partenopei are looking to sign the Inter striker to replace Gonzalo Higuain, who is expected to complete a move to Juventus this week after the Bianconeri activated his release clause.
Today saw a meeting in Milan between Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis, sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli and Icardi’s entourage.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, the Vesuviani are now willing to offer 45m plus bonuses, in addition to giving the forward a 6.5m per season contract, as well as 3m for half of his image rights.
SportMediaset echoes those figures, and it's thought that the Argentinian international has agreed in principle to the move.
The website calciomercato.com agrees that an improved offer has been tabled, but reports a 60m offer, with 5m in wages per season plus close to 5m for 50 per cent of Icardi’s image rights.
