"Inter" director P. Ausilio: we will solve the Icardi situation

Inter's sports director Piero Ausilio revealed that the future of Mauro Icardi as the team's captain will be decided in the near future.

The Argentine has been under a lot of pressure from fans after releasing an autobiography in which he called himself a hero for standing up to one of the ultras leaders.

This incident occurred last season when, after a 3-1 defeat to Sassuolo, he threw his striker's armband into the crowd.

Furthermore, recently Icardi has not been showing his best form - in the recent match against Cagliari, he missed a penalty kick.

When vice president Javier Zanetti mentioned that the striker could lose the captain's armband, Ausilio said: "The whole club agrees with Zanetti."

"Today we played an important match and needed to focus on Cagliari. Tomorrow (Monday - ed. note) we will have the opportunity to look at everything together with the player and analyze everything that happened, using a clear mind."

"I don't think we saw the best of Icardi today. Dealing with a certain pressure is not easy, especially when you're a 23-year-old boy."

"We will take care of the team and the club so that we are in the best shape during matches. We have to deal with a difficult sports situation, but I think it will only benefit Inter."

Zanetti and Ausilio's comments were met with Icardi's response to the fans on the social network Instagram.
