‘Lukaku has done a fantastic job of replacing Icardi’ – Striker sale won’t impact Inter, says Bergomi

Inter were happy to sanction a permanent move to Paris Saint-Germain for Mauro Icardi because Romelu Lukaku has done “a fantastic job” of replacing the Argentine, says Giuseppe Bergomi.

PSG have confirmed that an agreement to keep Icardi, who initially joined on loan in 2019, on their books has been pushed through.

The Ligue 1 champions have parted with a €50 million (£45m/$56m) fee, plus an additional €8m (£7m/$9m) in bonuses, for Icardi.

Inter allowed that deal to go through as they have no need for the South American frontman at San Siro.
