Mauro Icardi can leave Inter Milan this summer for just £43m, reports in Spain claim.
Icardi’s spell at Inter Milan is proving controversial with the striker on recently allowed back to training.
Icardi was stripped of the Inter captaincy six weeks ago following a stand-off with club chiefs over his future.
Inter are desperate for Icardi to sign a new contract that would delete a £90m release clause that will be active for two weeks only this summer.
According to Spanish newspaper Marca, Icardi is available for just £43.4m (€50m) in the summer.
And that will no doubt catch the attention of suitors Real Madrid and Manchester United.

10am UPDATE: Philippe Coutinho to Liverpool not happening
Liverpool would not be able to re-sign Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona if he was to leave the club this summer - simply because Barca would refused to be made to look stupid.
That’s the claim of ESPN’s Barca correspondent Samuel Marsden.
Speaking of the player’s struggles on the Liverpool Echo’s Blood Red podcast, Marsden explained: “The longer this goes on the more feasible that Barca would accept an offer.
“The problem is they paid so much for him, and have invested so much into him, that they don’t want to take a big hit.
“At the moment the official line is he’s not for sale.
“But unofficially there are whispers that if Manchester United, Chelsea, Bayern Munich or whoever it may be, came in during the summer and tested Barcelona with a bid, maybe of around £100m, then maybe the club would think now is the right time to cut their losses.
“As for Liverpool, I don’t have any insight from their point of view, but if they did come in with a bid it would almost be like Barca would be put off by selling him back to the club where they bought him from.
“Even if Liverpool were to match the same price that another club was prepared to pay, it almost feels like Barcelona would have been had off.”
