Icardi Expresses Delight Over PSG Switch

Mauro Icardi has expressed his delight after joining French champions Paris Saint Germain on loan from Inter Milan on transfer deadline day.

Icardi penned a two-year extension to his contract at the San Siro before joining Thomas Tuchel’s side, who reportedly have the option to make the deal permanent for €70m at the end of the season.

Prior to Icardi’s move on Monday, the Argentine had endured a turbulent period at Inter Milan after being stripped off the captaincy in the second half of last season and being frozen out of new manager Antonio Conte’s squad for the first two games of this campaign.

However, with Icardi poised to link up with the likes Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Edinson Cavani, the former Sampdoria striker, who has scored 124 times for Inter Milan, is gearing up for a great adventure at the Parc des Princes.

Icardi told PSG TV: "I'm very happy, delighted.

"It's a major step in my career, and a great opportunity to join a top club like Paris Saint-Germain. I hope to live great things here.

"Being able to play alongside these very talented players is amazing. The decision was easy to make, I've come to Paris because I wanted to play with them.

"I know the Argentines obviously, and I know [Edinson] Cavani. And I have met Neymar Jr. I am proud to become their team-mate.

"I am a striker, I like to score goals. It's going to be great to play up front with the amazing attacking players that are in this squad.

"It's always special to play against rivals. This is what makes football so great. I have played against Juve, Milan, these are major games. I am looking forward to playing these games in France now.

"I never played at the Parc des Princes, it will be a first for me. I will be able to tell you what it's like then!"
