“We are in good shape and worked well this week in a training retreat, so we are certainly ready to do well,” Icardi told Inter Channel.

“Sampdoria are my former team, thanks to them I was able to come here and I will always be thankful.

“However, I am a striker and if I get the chance to score a goal against my ex-team, I have to take it.”

It’s a special evening, as Ronaldo and Jose Mourinho are in the stands of San Siro, guests of former President Massimo Moratti.

“I admired Ronaldo, as he was and always will be the best Number 9 in history. He did incredible things that to this day nobody has been able to replicate.”
