Surprise suitor for Icardi as Olympiakos opens talks
According to reports, Olympiakos have begun negotiations with free agent Mauro Icardi over a potential two-year contract.
Mauro Icardi, who parted ways with Galatasaray after his contract expired, remains without a club despite the transfer window having closed. As uncertainty continues to surround the Argentine striker's future, an unexpected suitor has reportedly emerged from Greece. The next chapter of the experienced forward's career could unfold outside the Süper Lig.
According to Argentine journalist Nahuel Ferreira, Olympiakos reached out to Icardi following an injury to El Kaabi. The Greek club's move is seen as an attempt to address the gap left in their attack. Reports indicate that talks are ongoing and have yet to reach a conclusion.
Sources suggest Icardi is seeking a contract of at least two years. Official negotiations are said to be taking place between the player's agent and Olympiakos management. There is no confirmed information yet on the current stage of talks or a possible timeline for an agreement.
During his four seasons with Galatasaray, Mauro Icardi delivered consistently strong performances. The Argentine forward made 137 appearances for the Turkish giants, scoring 77 goals and providing 25 assists. Such numbers highlight why the striker remains on the radar of several clubs.
