Argentine striker Mauro Icardi is currently without a club and available on the transfer market. The player, who has previously played for major European clubs, finds himself without a professional contract at this time.
Atlético Mineiro, a traditional Brazilian football club that competes in the Brasileirão, has expressed interest in signing the Argentine. The Minas Gerais club sees in the player a possible signing to strengthen their attack for the next season.
Icardi's name had previously been linked to Benfica, the Portuguese club that also showed interest in the striker. However, the deal with the Portuguese side did not materialize.
With his contract situation free, Icardi can sign for any club without the need for transfer compensation payment, which makes his signing potentially attractive to interested clubs.
