Roberto Mancini: 'Mauro Icardi can be a great'

Roberto Mancini believes that young Inter Milan striker Mauro Icardi is destined to enjoy a great future.

Inter Milan coach Roberto Mancini has said that striker Mauro Icardi is destined to fire himself into the upper echelons of European football.

The Argentine hitman, 22, netted an 88th-minute winner as Inter defeated Roma 2-1 at the San Siro last night, bringing his total for the season to 18 in all competitions.

Hernanes opened the scoring on 15 minutes, a goal which was cancelled out by Radja Nainggolan after the hour mark, but Mancini reserved special praise for Icardi.

He told Sky Sport Italia: "He's [Icardi] already a great striker, but he can become a champion.

"He has the opportunities; sometimes he scores and sometimes he does not, but the great quality is that he shakes off those failures and gets right back out there.

"Today he missed a big chance and soon after scored in a similar situation. Not everyone has that mentality."

Icardi, who has been linked with a summer move away from Inter, is contracted to the Nerazzurri until 2018.
