Luis Figo has urged Inter not to sell Mauro Icardi to Real Madrid and looked back on his ‘terrific’ spell with the Nerazzurri.

Links between Icardi and Madrid resurfaced on Friday, while Figo spent four seasons at Inter between 2005 and 2009, winning four straight Scudetti.

“Icardi to Madrid? It’s clear that it wouldn’t be good for Inter or Italian football to lose big players,” the former Portugal winger told Corriere della Sera.

“Icardi to Madrid? It’s clear that it wouldn’t be good for Inter or Italian football to lose big players,” the former Portugal winger told Corriere della Sera.

“But clubs have their own policies and projects, so Inter will make their own decisions.

“Scudetto? I hope Inter win it. Juventus and Napoli are strong, and I hope to see a three-way battle, with Inter in the running for the Scudetto.

“My years at Inter were terrific. After Real Madrid, I had the chance to play at a high level again.

“When I arrived, Inter had started winning again and it was great, as was my relationship with the fans. Milan will always be a happy memory for me.”
