I’m boss of Inter Milan – I set up a secret Instagram account to spy on my players’ Wags

INTER MILAN sporting director Piero Ausilio has revealed he created a secret Instagram account to keep tabs on his players’ partners.

The 51-year-old was talking at an event addressing the challenges of modern football and social media.

A video emerged from the discussion in which Ausilio describes an unnamed partner of one of his players causing him “so many problems”.

He went on to reveal this led to him creating an Instagram account in an attempt to keep an eye on what the squad’s other halves were posting.

He said: “Now I confess one thing. I don’t have an official Instagram account but I did set one up because the famous wife of a player was causing me problems.

“Many things can be understood from wives and girlfriends, including the footballer’s personality.

“Then I also follow players, even from other teams. But I created it for a footballer’s wife who was giving me so many problems.”

It is unclear who Ausilio was referring to when discussing the issues his players’ partners have given him in the past.

But those on social media are convinced he was talking about Wanda Nara, the wife of former striker Mauro Icardi – who scored 124 goals in 219 games for the club.

Wanda, 36, who is also Icardi’s agent, hit the headlines last year when she was forced to deny fake reports she had an affair with Icardi’s ex-Inter team-mate Marcelo Brozovic.

She went on to insist Icardi, who left Inter for PSG in 2019, had to leave the Italian giants as a result of the allegations.

Four years ago, she also enraged Inter CEO Giuseppe Marotta by claiming her husband had turned down financially lucrative offers to stay at the San Siro.

She also slammed the club for leaving Icardi out of their starting line-up, saying: “He (Icardi) didn’t miss the game, but you missed him. You’ve missed him in the league and also the Champions League. Mauro’s scored eight goals in 11 matches against Juventus.”

And Ausilio’s comments were met with a host of responses speculating about Wanda being the “problem” Wag.

One social media user said: “It must have been Wanda.”

While another simply added: “Wandona.”

But there is no indication Wanda is in fact the person Ausilio is referring to.

Other Inter Wags include Nicolo Barella’s wife Federica Schievenin, Edin Dzeko’s partner Amra Silajdzic, Lautaro Martinez’s wife Agustino Gandolfo, and Alessandro Bastoni’s other half Camilla Bresciani.
