There are many examples of the good relationship between Gao Zheng and Icardi.

For example, Icardi and Gao Zheng met in the Sampdoria reserve team, served as a forward partner, and helped the Sampdoria reserve team win the reserve team championship. Another example is Icardi's first goal after being transferred to the first team again, which came from Gao Zheng's assist.

For example, when I interviewed the Sampdoria players before, I knew that Icardi did not have many friends in Sampdoria, except for those Argentine compatriots, the best relationship with him was Gao Zheng.

So when Icardi resolutely left Sampdoria, no one expected that Icardi would leave the team because of Gao Zheng.

Everyone knows that Icardi is an assistant to Gao Zheng in Sampdoria. But isn't it normal to assist Gao Zheng?

With Gao Zheng's ability and potential, it is not a shame to assist him. And playing next to Gao Zheng can also improve and improve.

Icardi's fifteen goals in his first season in Serie A are not just due to him, but also to a number of high-profile factors. Some of the goals were assisted by Gao Zheng, while others were scored by Gao Zheng after Gao Zheng had absorbed most of the defence's attention, and Icardi was able to score in a relatively less tight defensive environment.

You must know that many people want to play with Gao Zheng, such as Berardi, who transferred from Sassuolo to Sampdoria this season, and when he just transferred to Sampdoria, he couldn't wait to take the initiative to show favor to Gao Zheng, which is normal.

Unexpectedly, Icardi has always wanted to be an opponent with Gao Zheng. However, he was on the same team with Gao Zheng before, and his wish obviously could not be realized, and the head coach would not let him replace Gao Zheng as the core.

What's even more unexpected is that Icardi's desire to defeat Gao Zheng is so strong, since there is no way to fight Gao Zheng in Sampdoria, then leave Sampdoria!

In order to compete with Gao Zheng, he left the original team.

Icardi's reason for leaving the team was also a real surprise.

Such a bizarre reason was soon fueled by the media and spread throughout Italy.

Only then did everyone know that the relationship between Icardi and Gao Zheng was not a "friend" as they thought, but an "opponent".

This has led to new speculations, with some conspiracy theorists speculating that the "friend" relationship between Icardi and Gao Zheng is an illusion, which Gao Zheng unilaterally made in order to create his own image of a "good person". But behind the scenes, he and Icardi are very competitive. Gao Zheng's "personality" successfully deceived the trust of other teammates and won the favor of the head coach, so in the competition between Gao Zheng and Icardi, his teammates and head coach were inclined to Gao Zheng, and in the end, Icardi was obviously very talented, so he could only fall to the point where Gao Zheng started.

I have to say that this kind of story is actually very outrageous, but if you can't stand it, someone believes it. There are really people on the Internet who are rumoring that Gao Zheng's character has collapsed or something.

When this kind of message and Icardi's answer reached Gao Zheng's ears, Gao Zheng couldn't help but cry and laugh in the face of the reporter who came to ask: "It's made up like the real thing, I almost believed it." But the truth is that I didn't take away any talented teammates, and I didn't deceive my teammates and the manager. Although Mauro regarded me as an opponent, I always treated him as a friend. Believe it or not, that's the way it is. ”

The reporters found that Gao Zheng did not deny that Icardi was competing with him, so they asked: "So he really left Sampdoria because he wanted to be your opponent and defeat you?" ”

"Well, that's what he said, at least."

The journalists got excited.

Although Gao Zheng is the ball bully, it is unlikely that the drama of driving away Icardi is true, but the competition between Gao Zheng and Icardi is real!

So far this season, Gao Zheng has scored nine goals in the league and Icardi has scored eight in the league, just one difference between the two.

Last season, no one could stop Gao Zheng from winning the league's Golden Boot, and El Shaarawy, who had high hopes before, was very vigorous in the first half of the season, but quickly withered after the winter break. Cavani's last-minute desperate catch-up couldn't catch up, and he hasn't been out of Serie A this season.

So who can stop Gao Zheng's attack on the league's golden boot this season?

Giuseppe Rossi has been in fine form so far, scoring eleven goals and is the most likely threat to Gao Zheng.

Now knowing that Icardi also has a very strong subjective desire to compete with Gao Zheng, everyone suddenly feels that Icardi has become the most promising candidate, surpassing Giuseppe Rossi.

Objectively, Icardi scored eight goals, just one goal away from Gao Zheng.

Subjectively, Icardi has a strong desire to defeat Gao Zheng.

In addition, Icardi and Gao Zheng have been teammates for two years, and they know Gao Zheng better than other opponents, so it may be easier to gain the upper hand in the competition with Gao Zheng......

Those reporters who hated Sampdoria and Gao Zheng suddenly saw hope again.

If Icardi can beat Gao Zheng in the competition for the league scorer list this season, they will finally be able to endure Gao Zheng's birdishness anymore.

"Gao personally admits that Icardi is his enemy!"

"Leaving in order to defeat Gao, Icardi's persistence is admirable!"

The Italian and Chinese media are **, but the focus of the media in the two countries is different, the above headlines are from the Italian media, and the following are the works of the Chinese media:

"Leaving Sampdoria with infamy turned out to be for him!"

"Both Shengyu and He Shengliang, for you to doxx the grievances and hatred of Icardi and Gao Zheng!"

"Marcy recalls when Icardi and Gao Zheng first met......"

"I was going to have my heart set on the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch - how do you evaluate Icardi for treating Gao Zheng as an opponent, but Gao Zheng treats him as a friend?"

Icardi regarded Gao Zheng as an opponent, so after the transfer to Sampdoria was recognized by both parties, the most surprising thing was the Sampdoria fans.

They had always thought that Gao Zheng and Icardi had a good relationship, and the two worked together tacitly on the court, and they did have chemistry.

But I didn't expect that the good relationship that had always been good was just a disguise.

Some fans think that Icardi is beyond his strength and wants to compete with Gao Zheng.

But there are also people who have mixed feelings about Icardi - if Icardi can stay in the team this season and continue to attack with Gao Zheng, Sampdoria may perform better in the Champions League and not hover in the middle of the league.

They were disappointed and angry when Icardi left suddenly, and now they are at a loss when they know the truth about Icardi's departure.

This person who has the courage to challenge Gao Zheng, what he did was right or wrong. Some people think that Icardi is not qualified to compete with Gao Zheng, this idea is wrong and selfish, but some people will think that if they are very confident in themselves, why can't they compete with Gao Zheng?

Next up is the game between Sampdoria and Inter Milan, should they boo Icardi when they see Icardi in the Inter shirt take the ball?
