The management of the Turkish club Galatasaray is preparing to start official negotiations with the team's striker, Argentine Mauro Icardi, with the aim of extending his contract which ends in the summer of 2026. This early step by the club's management comes to ensure the player's long-term commitment, especially with the increasing interest in his services from other clubs.
Icardi (32 years old) is considered a key pillar in the team's lineup, and he has become a fan favorite recently due to his outstanding performance and crucial goal contributions. Galatasaray's management views the Argentine striker as an indispensable leader in the attacking line and wishes to close any opportunity for his transfer in the winter transfer window.
Sources indicate that the club's desire to secure the player's future is part of the team's efforts to maintain stability and continue competing for local and continental titles.
