#3 Mauro Icardi (Inter Milan)
One of the hottest strikers available in the market. We have talked about the issues Madrid faces up front. Their finishing is poor and they need a player to fix it. Who is better than Mauro Icardi? Edinson Cavani, Harry Kane, all are deadly finishers but they have great wingers and midfielders aiding them. This man, he just needs the ball at his feet, near the box and he finishes it, no matter what he has to do.
Yes, it is a bit exaggerating but Icardi really is a great finisher and he does it without much quality that other strikers have exposure to. He has scored really important goals for the club and has also got a winner in the Milan derby. What Icardi possesses is finishing ability and also the ability to create, not by going deep but staying in the front itself. He has created 18 chances and scored 8 goals this season.
Unlike Cavani and Benzema, he has a higher shot accuracy; he finds the target more than he misses it. But then, his conversion is also good enough. He converts 8% of his shots into goals. But he does it with no quality wingers and has to rely on Perisic mostly. With Vinicius Junior and Vazquez to support him, he will no doubt yield better results. Amongst all top strikers, Cavani and Kane have high exposure to creative players and thus their only job is to hit the ball to the back. Icardi has to do that little bit more.
So, will Inter sell their most important player? It is not a possibility and they have denied it. But it has happened a lot that a player 'not for sale' is sold. With the hefty fee that Icardi will get them, they can bolster two to three weak spots in the team.
