Mauro Icardi angers his club by flying to Argentina to confront ex wife over video with a rapper

Mauro Icardi has angered Galatasaray by reportedly flying to Argentina to confront his ex wife Wanda Nara over a music video where she is kissing a rapper.

Wanda, who has served as Icardi's agent, announced on Instagram that the couple had split after eight years of marriage.

She asked for privacy going forward following on from a relationship very public falling out where Wanda accused the former Inter Milan captain of cheating on her with Argentine model and actor China Suarez.

The saga continues to rumble on after Wanda featured in Argentine rapper L-Gante's video for the track 'El Ultimo Romantico' - which translates to 'The last romantic'.

The video, which has 8.3 million views on YouTube, is highly suggestive and sees scenes of the two in bed together, at a meal, getting cosy outside a car and then refusing to answer questions from media.

Incensed by what he saw in the video, as well as the promotional art showing Wanda kissing L-Gante, Icardi jetted off to Argentina in a bid to speak to her.

According to Radio Mitre, Icardi did not have permission from Galatasaray, who he joined on loan in the summer, to make the trip.

"Icardi immediately phoned Wanda, asked her to return to Turkey and put an end to this media farce," the outlet claim, as per the Daily Mail.

"'Mauro no longer knows what words to use: he is angry and sad at the same time. Galatasaray is not happy with what the striker is doing, who risks ending his career earlier than expected."

Footage doing the rounds online shows Icardi, with his suitcase, in the lobby of hotel Wanda was staying at. Much to his frustration, security guards would not let him pass.

Wanda is still technically Icardi's representative and negotiated his deadline day loan move from PSG to Galatasaray, where he has a 24-hour chauffeur, home security and a chef.

Icardi first met Wanda when he was teammates with Maxi Lopez at Sampdoria, with the striker inviting him to his house and bringing him on trips away.

They married one year after she divorced Lopez and had two daughters together. Their relationship has dominated the tabloids and will likely still do so even after their separation.

Wanda, who is the host of the Argentine version of 'The Masked Singer', recently claimed that former Southampton striker Dani Osvaldo tried to flirt with her while she was with Icardi when they were teammates at Inter.
