Today, the Argentine took it to social media to ask for his fans' forgiveness, while also adding that his love for Inter will never end. 

Then, the footballer aimed a dig at Inter execs, for allegedly disrespecting him during their contract negotiations.

Una publicación compartida de Mauro Icardi - MI9 (@mauroicardi) el

"It is in the most difficult moments that true love is shown. It was in those moments that I decided to stay at Inter, with Inter. When I felt that with my goals I could help Inter to be stronger, of many things. Stronger than the problems of financial fair play. Stronger than our difficulties, when there were many to judge that as a team we were not worth much to Inter. With Inter. And despite everything, I've always decided to stay. (...) But I have always insisted on taking the field, even against medical advice. Because I was able to forget every pain in the field, with the only goal of giving everything I could to help these colors. At Inter. With Inter."

"I made my dream come true, I materialized the dream of all of us Inter, returning to the Champions League, with the team I was captain of. Because I have always felt and transmitted love for these colors. I have always disapproved of those who at the first opportunity tried to leave the club. I respected the fans, my team-mates, the club and all the coaches that passed during my stay. I worked with the club, both on and off the pitch, in the insertion of each new player, showing that only with the passion we could achieve our goals. I do not know if at this moment there is love and respect towards Inter and towards me by some who take decisions. I do not know if there is somebody to act and solve things solely and exclusively for Inter's sake. Many things can happen in a family, good or bad. And out of love one can bear much, of everything. But respect must never be lacking. These are my values, these are the values ​​for which I have always struggled. In my story. At Inter. With Inter."
