The Argentine striker has a reported €94m release clause but Inter Milan will be happy to do a business for between €50-70m. According to reports from Corriere dello Sport, Wanda Nara, the agent and wife of Icardi, is travelling to London today to discuss a potential transfer move to Arsenal for the former Sampdoria striker.
The Gunners would likely to limit their transfer fee within €50m-€70m and would be ready to offer the 23-year-old striker a €6m a season in wages, plus bonuses.
Icardi joined Inter Milan in 2013 from Sampdoria and has scored 52 goals for the Serie A giants in all competitions over the course of three seasons with the Nerazzurri.
