Just after his match against Clermont on Saturday, the PSG striker joined his Argentinian compatriot, Juan Imhoff, q


These two never leave each other.

Mauro Icardi, the PSG striker, and Juan Imhoff, the Racing 92 winger, are like brothers.

The two Argentines have cemented around them a small group of compatriots who meet as soon as possible.

New example this Saturday evening.

Entered in the 79th minute in place of Kylian Mbappé during the victory (4-0) of PSG against Clermont at the Parc des Princes, Mauro Icardi did not drag after the match.

He went to witness the success of Racing 92 ahead of La Rochelle (23-10).

And around midnight, he joined his friend Juan Imhoff on the synthetic turf to challenge him in a game of drops and penalties.

In jeans and sneakers, black cap screwed on his head, the center-forward of PSG did well, far from being ridiculous on attempts of thirty meters and more.

Icardi - Imhoff is the story of two children from Rosario, a city of 2 million inhabitants 280 km north of Buenos Aires, born in two different worlds.

Football and the rapid departure to Spain, from the age of 9 with his family, for the first.

Rugby and the arrival in Racing among professionals at 22 for the second.

The 28-year-old Italo-Argentinian, who joined PSG in September 2019, quickly joined the “family” led by the 33-year-old Franco-Argentinian rugby player.

), who met here, are very friends, explained Juan Imhoff in the Parisian. I'm also friends with Angel Di Maria. We see each other once a week, we organize barbecues with other Argentinian friends, especially when the polo players come to compete in the summer season. We will see them play in Bagatelle (

in the Bois de Boulogne

) or in Chantilly, in the Oise. Icardi has already come to the Jean-Bouin stadium to attend the derby against the Stade Français last week, I go to the Parc des Princes as soon as I can. We try to meet as much as possible according to the schedule. "

Saturday night, their agendas allowed them to do so. Provided you go to bed late ... And not to fear the early morning awakening to witness the heavy defeat of the Pumas (39-0) against New Zealand, in the Rugby Championship.
