CONTRACT CRISIS ERUPTED
Icardi, one of the most important names in the yellow-red team recently, has a contract with Galatasaray that expires in the summer of 2026. However, a surprising development has occurred regarding the Argentine footballer's future.
ARGENTINE JOURNALIST ANNOUNCED
Argentine journalist Juan Etchegoyen made a striking claim in a statement to Radio Mitre. Etchegoyen said, "I spoke with a very reliable source today.
