Paris Saint-Germain will have several loanees returning after their loan contracts expire on June 30. However, one player that has generated a market for himself after a successful spell is Mauro Icardi.
In the Super Lig, Icardi demonstrated his goal-scoring prowess by netting an impressive 22 goals and providing seven assists in just 24 games. His contributions were crucial in Galatasaray clinching their first league title in four years.
Although the 30-year-old rejuvenated his career during a successful stint at Galatasaray, some clubs will still not be interested in the Argentine. GOAL France reported that despite being offered the chance to initiate negotiations for the player’s services, AC Milan rejected the opportunity.

While the exact reasons behind Milan’s rejection remain undisclosed, they may have alternative plans. The club’s management may focus on different targets or prefer a different style of player to fit their tactical approach.
AC Milan’s decision to forego the opportunity to sign Icardi does not necessarily indicate a lack of appreciation for his talents.
It is important to note that transfer decisions are complex and involve various factors beyond a player’s performance. Clubs must carefully evaluate potential signings to ensure they align with their long-term objectives and overall team dynamics.
Icardi should have a market elsewhere, even though Milan reportedly said no thanks to the PSG striker.
