Gattuso: Lazio won't sign Icardi as free agent

Gattuso has shut down talk of Lazio signing Mauro Icardi, insisting the club has already made its choices.

What happened. Gennaro Gattuso confirmed Lazio will not sign Mauro Icardi as a free agent, despite talks between the club and Icardi's entourage. Gattuso said Lazio have already made their choices, having signed Pinamonti and Gudmundsson.

• Icardi's Galatasaray contract expired in June 2026, making him a free agent.
• Negotiations between Lazio and Icardi's representatives resumed last week but ended without a deal.
• Lazio have three wins and one draw from four Serie A games this season.

“Let’s put this whole Icardi mess to rest.”

— Gennaro Gattuso

Lazio return to Serie A action on Saturday, September 19, away at Venezia.
