Icardi wants PSG stay but Inter won't sign Werner, says sporting director Ausilio

The French giants have the option to sign the Argentine forward on a long-term deal but are yet to trigger their clause

Mauro Icardi has signed a contract to stay at Paris Saint-Germain on a permanent basis, Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio says, but the two clubs are yet to reach an agreement over a fee.

The Argentina international joined the French champions on loan in September and went on to score 20 goals in 31 matches.

PSG have the option to sign him outright for around €70 million (£63m/$78m), but the clause is only valid until the end of the month. The club are ready to sign him on a long-term deal, but the 27-year-old may be too expensive because of the coronavirus pandemic.
