Mauro Icardi will not play tonight for Paris Saint Germain for the Champions League. Although he was summoned by coach Mauricio Pochettino, the forward finally made the decision not to be part of the team because he does not feel well emotionally because of the conflict he goes through with his wife Wanda Nara.
The sports diary L´Equipe confirmed that Icardi will not be in the Parc des Princes against Leipzig. According to the information, the scorer does not feel fit to play after two days without training and he would be having a hard time.
“Mauricio Pochettino had planned to have him in the squad but the PSG forward was excused by the club due to his family situation. He is currently in Paris, having made a round trip to Milan, but does not feel able to play. He is very affected by the separation announced by his wife Wanda Nara on Saturday night. “, published the aforementioned Parisian newspaper.
In his current situation, Icardi feels that he cannot contribute to the team because he has his head set on the problems with Wanda. First he needs to resolve that aspect of his private life, although the coach wanted to tell about it for today’s game because he has injured the Brazilian Neymar and suspended the Argentine Di María. In fact, this morning he appeared on the squad list.
One of the strong versions indicates that Wanda is planning to travel to Argentina and stay to live for a while to try to leave the crisis with Icardi behind, which could affect the footballer since he would stay alone in Paris, even far from his daughters.
