An astonishing anecdote on Mauro Icardi was told by Sergi Gómez, defender of Espanyol, in the Spanish podcast “Post United”. The 33 -year -old, who went through Barça and Seville, spoke of a memory of their common visit to the Masia, the legendary FC Barcelona training center. One day, Icardi would have taken it to a park with an artisanal sling, targeting a pigeon perched in a tree. “He pulled the sling with a stone and … boom!” He hit the pigeon 20 or 30 meters high ”detailed Gómez.
Back at the residence, the Argentinian striker would then have plummed the pigeon, would have pamped it with a wire, lit a fire and ate the animal on the spot. “He ate the pigeon in front of me. I said to myself: “What is waiting for me now if we have already started like that?” »»he added laughing. “But I have a lot of affection for Mauro. We have gone through a lot of trials together. »» Today, Icardi is playing in Galatasaray after going through Serie A and Ligue 1, where he has evolved at Inter Milan and PSG.
