PSG striker Mauro Icardi turned down by Arsenal in January

Arsenal were offered PSG striker Mauro Icardi in January.

The Athletic says Arsenal had the opportunity to sign the PSG forward during the January transfer window.

The Ligue 1 side were willing to explore the prospect of a potential swap deal involving the Argentinian striker.

PSG reportedly approached Arsenal over the swap deal as Mikel Arteta had indicated he was looking to sign a striker.

However, the Gunners decided to stick with their current options for the remainder of the 2021-2022 season as Icardi did not match the type of player Arteta was interested in.
