Galatasaray's star forward Mauro Icardi has captured the hearts of the fans with his performance. The Argentine, who was one of the architects of last season's championship, continues his impressive form with the goals he has scored this season.
Mauro, who celebrated goals in matches against Trabzonspor, Beşiktaş, and Manchester United, risked his health to play in the Bayern Munich match despite being injured. He left everyone in awe with his Panenka penalty. The French press wrote that the 30-year-old striker is on his way to becoming a legend at Galatasaray.
France24 stated the following: "Icardi is on his way to becoming a legend at the Turkish club. Icardi rejected an offer from a Saudi club because he wanted to write his pre-season story in Turkey. The stands at Rams Park chant the striker's name in every match. The Argentine could be the club's 'most legendary foreign player' since the Romanian Gheorghe Hagi, who was one of the leading figures in the four Turkish championships Galatasaray won between 1997 and 2000, as well as the 2000 UEFA Cup victory."
