Argentine footballer, Mauro Icardi has broken his silence amid his bitter divorce battle with ex-wife Wanda Nara, issuing a strongly worded statement after her”outrageous” demands were thrown out by the Italian courts.
The striker, 33, and Argentine model filed to end their marriage two years ago after Nara announced their split in September 2022.
Ever since then, the model has been fighting for Icardi to fork out huge sums of cash as part of the divorce settlement.
Now, the former Paris Saint-Germain and Galatasaray marksman, who is now a free agent, has revealed those requests have been thrown out.
In a bombshell statement released on Instagram Stories, Icardi said: “Over here, it’s all good news. There has been a new ruling.
“They demanded the following in the divorce proceedings – €250,000 per month for my ex, €65,000 for each of my daughters and €100,000 per month as part of the divorce settlement.
“On June 1, 2026, the judge REJECTED these outrageous claims. Unhappy with the decision and determined to keep taking my money, they appealed the ruling.
“On, July 27, 2026, the Italian courts made their decision crystal clear – the appeal was declared inadmissible.
“This effectively puts an end to all claims and demands. There is now only one final step left before the divorce judgement is finalised.
“It’s good to see that the Italian justice system works. Back in 2024, people called me crazy for insisting that everything should be handled in Italy.”
Icardi and Nara, 39, tied the knot in May 2014 after her divorce from his ex-Sampdoria team-mate Maxi Lopez had been finalised.
And they went on to have two daughters – Francesca and Isabella – during their on-off relationship.
Nara, who broke down in tears on live TV after agreeing to go their separate ways, made explosive claims that Icardi was having an affair with Maria Eugenia Suarez in 2021 before they rekindled.
The eight-cap Argentina international won four league titles during a trophy-laden spell with Galatasaray.
Icardi has scored 250 senior goals at club level, with the majority of his strikes coming at Inter Milan.
