Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal are keen to sign Mauro Icardi, the Argentine striker’s wife and agent Wanda Nara.

The Inter striker and captain is reportedly courting interest from clubs across Europe amid reports that the Serie A club are looking to offload him.

“We want to stay in Milan. People say I am a mercenary, but I am not,” she told Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera.

“(Inter) have to say the truth. They can’t say Icardi is not for sale and then talk to other clubs.

“I’ve asked for a renewal because the club had promised me a renewal. Last year we accepted their conditions, which mean a lower salary, the sale of the 50 per cent of Mauro’s economic rights and there is no release clause on his contract.”

Nara says there are numerous clubs interested in Icardi’s services. “Atletico Madrid, Tottenham and Arsenal have made contact. Napoli and Roma are also interested now,” Nara was quoted as saying.
