Inter Milan team captain Mauro Icardi has been the subject of trade rumors recently. With multiple teams contacting him for offers, Icardi shrugs off anything related to trade. His wife, Wanda Nara thinks he should be worth nearly €200 million.

Many recent rumors surrounding Icardi seem to be related to dominant team Real Madrid. Madrid even has an offer ready for the player once they have negotiations, as per Daily Star.

The Los Blancos have been having a rough start to this season, and coach and once-player of the team Zinedine Zidane is looking for some solutions. Zidane may have found it in Icardi, and he is apparently offering €88 million for the Inter Milan captain. This will make Icardi Real Madrid's top target during the winter transfer window.

When asked about the rumors, Icardi simply shut them down. "If I receive a phone call from Madrid, I won't answer," said Icardi during an interview via SkySports. His coach is even confident in saying that the soccer idol would stay with the team until he retires.

However, Icardi meant to say that it was not in his power if he would move or not, saying also that the issue would be up to his agent. That said, if Real Madrid wants him and gives him the offer, it might not be enough for his agent and wife, Nara.

Nara had shared her thoughts on her husband's possible move. "I prefer not to tell you is calling me," says Nara. "It is I who talk about these things while Mauro thinks of Inter and is happy to be here." When asked to talk about it further bringing up his release clause of €110m, she simply replied saying that he should be worth nearly €200m.

If that is what Nara wants, then Madrid may have to rethink their offer. Their rivals F.C. Barcelona is up by eight points as the team's front line is struggling to get some goals.
