The Argentine footballer has been linked with a move to Juventus, but Napoli is still eager to lure the player away from the Giuseppe Meazza

First, he was stripped from the captain's armband. Then, he was banned from training with the first team due to a contract dispute. Now, with Antonio Conte at the helm, Mauro Icardi has lost his spot with Inter Milan for good.

The Argentine striker, who at one point of the summer was linked to Atlético Madrid, Napoli, Juventus and even Barcelona, has seen his reputation plummet in spectacular fashion, and Inter's latest gesture proves that his time with the nerazzurri is all but over.

Earlier today, the former Sampdoria footballer was stripped from his jersey number with Inter, as Number 9 will now be worn by the team's deadline day signing, Romelu Lukaku. This move is seen by many as a desperate move by the nerazzurri to show just how interested they are in parting ways with the footballer.

Here's how Inter's Twitter feed revealed there will be no space for Icardi in their squad this season.

Icardi's future will be decided in the next couple of weeks. His agent/wife, Wanda Nara, has already stated that the footballer would prefer to stay in Italy, but neither Juve nor Napoli seem interested in paying him the kind of money he earns with the nerazzurri.
