According to Calciomercato.it, she was in a meeting with Arsenal this evening.
The encounter saw both parties express their mutual interest in a possible summer transfer.
However, Napoli also remain in the background as firm contenders, especially if Gonzalo Higuain leaves.
As Juventus appear to have pulled out of the running for Higuain, that leaves Arsenal as the main contenders for the Argentine.
Inter have stated Icardi is not for sale, but his wife gave a series of interviews assuring the club had meetings with several clubs, including Atletico Madrid.
It's reported the wages on offer from Arsenal are worth €7m per year, but his transfer fee would be at least €50m.
