Top striker Mauro Icardi could reportedly be entitled to financial support from his wife after their impending divorce - despite earning an estimated £5million per year.
The Galatasaray star is going through divorce proceedings with his high-profile spouse Wanda Nara, an Argentinian model and presenter with whom he has two kids.
Icardi has accused Nara of infidelity, an allegation which could lead to her having to pay alimony if it is proven to have led to their divorce.
The 32-year-old says Nara cheated on him with Argentinian singer L-Gante and former team-mates Federico Fazio and Keita Balde - the latter has even admitted to having the affair.
Nara has denied knowing Fazio, has not addressed the Balde situation, and is open about her former relationship with L-Gante, which came amid an informal split from Icardi.
According to journalist Gustavo Méndez, via MinutoUno, Nara's alleged infidelity could lead to a financial penalty.
'What they're telling me is that, if adultery is confirmed, and Mauro Icardi is very certain that it will happen, Wanda will have to support Mauro Icardi until he remarries. According to the Italian courts. This is the information I just received,' Mendez told Mujeres Argentinas.
'If adultery is confirmed, Wanda will have to financially support Icardi until he remarries.
Lawyer Mariana Gallego added: 'Adultery has direct consequences for alimony. The guilty party is the one who must support the innocent spouse, something similar to what happened in Argentina before 2015.'
Nara is not the only one to start another relationship while still being married - Icardi has done the same.
After their split, Icardi began his own romance with actress and model China Suarez, who he allegedly cheated on Nara with while they were still together.
Icardi and Nara married in May 2014, and their relationship rarely made it out of the headlines as they underwent multiple separations.
However, In July, Nara, a model and TV host who also acted as Icardi's agent, revealed that the pair had finally ended their tumultuous 10-year romance for good, reportedly filing for divorce around the same time.
She told America TV: 'For personal and health reasons, I tried once more, but it didn’t work. Let everyone talk. I've saved my silence for the last.
'I know how hard endings are and what they cost. There are things on TV and the internet that aren't true, but I accept it as part of the bad and who I am.
'I decided to end it, but Mauro and I will still be a family. It wasn’t a mistake to try more when there was love. I regret nothing; these years were the best of my life, but now I must be alone.
'There is no villain or third party; our relationship was always stronger than it seemed from the outside. My priority has always been my children, and now more than ever. Thank you for your respect.'
This was not the first time that Nara has claimed her marriage to Icardi is over. She made the same statement in September 2022, and had a brief relationship with L-Gante amid that split, but they ended up reconciling.
Icardi also wrote an emotional message to his wife the previous year after Nara took him back following cheating accusations made against the forward.
On the Argentine TV show LAM, Nara revealed Icardi vowed to 'destroy' her when she asked for a divorce, as she claimed he had now bought her dream house - a $4m (£3.3m) mansion in Argentina that she had planned to share with Icardi when he retired - for him and Suarez to live in.
'Seeing this woman uploading photos in the house I dreamed of for my daughters breaks my soul,' Nara said.
'That house is mine because Mauro bought it when we were married. In Argentina there is no division of property. That house will be my daughters' and mine too. This is not a separation, it is a constant provocation.'
The pair have tried to put on a united front over the years, regularly posting pictures of themselves together on Instagram.
Former Italy defender Daniele Adani once claimed the couple have sex up to 12 times a day during an appearance on Christian Vieiri's Twitch channel, and they have pushed the boundaries by sharing rather revealing material online.
