Bergomi: ‘Icardi isn’t a leader’
By Football Italia staff

Inter legend Beppe Bergomi believes Mauro Icardi “is not a leader”, and Joao Miranda leads “more as an example”.

Icardi is captain of the Nerazzurri, but after a spat with the fans earlier this season and an ineffective showing in last night’s Derby della Madonnina, a former captain says he isn’t inspiring.

“We have Icardi, who is not a leader but more of a solo artist,” Bergomi told Sky.

“He has to improve in team play. He hasn’t repeated the match against Juventus where I really liked what he did.

“I had thought of Miranda as being a leader, but I think he’s more taciturn, so I think he leads more as an example.

“At this point the leader must be [Coach Stefano] Pioli.”
