Chelsea finds it difficult to recruit Mauro Icardi?
(Baonghean.vn) - Coach Conte will certainly bring at least one more striker to Stamford Bridge to share the burden with the Morata - Batshuayi duo, right in this winter transfer period. The name that the Italian strategist is aiming for is Inter Milan striker Mauro Icardi.
The striker position in Chelsea's attack this season is quite thin, with only 2 faces: Morata and Batshuayi. Having to fight on the fronts: Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, English League Cup, the number of 2 players like that is too small.
Not to mention, both Batshuayi and Morata have not been in stable form and have been injured frequently recently. That has significantly affected Chelsea's performance over the past 2 months. If they do not quickly recruit more personnel, the consequences that the Stamford Bridge team will have to face will be extremely serious.
Faced with that situation, Coach Conte had to express his wish to the board of directors to spend money to bring in a top-class striker to help Chelsea continue their journey to conquer championship titles. According to the revelations from two prestigious newspapers in England, Express and Daily Star, Coach Conte's most satisfactory target is star Mauro Icardi, a striker currently playing for Inter Milan.
In terms of talent, the Argentine international is one of the best strikers in Serie A and even in Europe. What Mauro Icardi has achieved for Inter Milan is enough to make any coach crave his signature.

Possessing the player born in 1993, Chelsea's strength will be significantly improved. Not only will it help coach Conte have a team with depth, but it will also help the Italian strategist more easily apply the 3-5-2 formation (Conte's forte when leading Juventus and the Italian national team), or the 4-4-2 formation, the 3-4-1-2 formation and even the current 3-4-3 formation.
Having a "goal machine" like Mauro Icardi on the attack line, Chelsea's number of goals also increased significantly. In short, successfully recruiting the captain of Inter Milan Club, the team at Stamford Bridge is like "a tiger with wings".
The question is how Chelsea can get Mauro Icardi out of Giuseppe Meazza? Money is not a big deal for the London club, but it is a small matter for Inter Milan. Don't expect money to convince Spalletti and the owners at Giuseppe Meazza to agree.
Currently, Inter Milan is competing for the Serie A championship with Juventus, Napoli... so it is difficult for the Nerazzurri leadership to lose their pillar, their brightest star. The importance of Mauro Icardi to Inter Milan is needless to say.

Of course, Inter Milan is not an insurmountable obstacle. As long as Mauro Icardi wants to share the Giuseppe Meazza pitch, no one can keep him. Chelsea only needs to spend 110 million euros to break the star's contract with Inter Milan, Conte will immediately have the service of the Argentine striker.
That is if Mauro Icardi agrees to join Chelsea. This is almost impossible, at least at the moment. Instead of moving to London, Mauro Icardi will decide to continue to contribute to Inter Milan.
The 2018 World Cup is approaching, and Mauro Icardi would be foolish enough to venture into a new and risky environment like the Premier League, which could jeopardize his chances of going to Russia with the Argentina national team. The official starting position in the attack of the “Land of Tango” team is still not firmly in the hands of the 24-year-old striker, with fierce competition from Aguero, Higuain, Dybala, Benedetto...
Moreover, the Premier League arena has buried the careers of famous stars such as Shevchenko, Veron, Crespo - all from Serie A. Therefore, it is unlikely that Mauro Icardi will choose a risky adventure at Stamford Bridge in January 2018./.
