Mauro Icardi and Maxi López were teammates at Sampdoria during the 2013/14 season.
They were friends, too. Wanda Nara was married to López, and they had three children.
In October 2013, she announced their breakup on Twitter. A month was all it took.
On May 27, 2014, Wanda and Icardi got married in San Isidro. The ceremony lasted twenty minutes. López’s three children carried the rings.
In 2014 and 2016, when Sampdoria and Inter faced each other on the pitch, López refused to shake Icardi’s hand. Diego Maradona even called him a “traitor”.
There was a friendship. Then there was a wedding. In between, just twelve months.
