Maxi Lopez on Icardi:"I hadn't spoken to Messi and Mascherano in over ten years"

While Maxi Lopez doesn't like to talk about the situation with Icardi, he decided to address the subject after a picture with Messi and Mascherano created the impression there's a pact to keep the Inter striker off Argentina's national team:"I don't speak often and this isn't good sometimes. I need to clarify the situation as now my friends are being involved, this was done with malicious intent- the striker told TYC Sports- It had been over ten years since I had spine to Messi and Mascherano. The football world is jealous when a player has a certain amount of media exposure. Our world has some rules and when someone breaks them they pay. In life it's the same thing. I'd like to have a private conversation with him, but I can't because they're putting the kids in the middle. Many times they asked me to write a book. Imagine if I told the things that happened to me, but I prefer to keep it to myself. Books must be written by champions, the champions of truth"
