Last night, I had an unforgettable experience: I had dinner with Mauro Icardi, one of the most famous footballers in the world.
It all started when I won a fan contest organized by Galatasaray. I was invited to a private dinner with Icardi at a luxury restaurant in Istanbul.
When I arrived, he welcomed me with a big smile and a friendly handshake. We sat down and talked about football, life, and even food. He was very down-to-earth and kind. I asked him about his time in Paris and how he enjoys playing in Turkey. He told me that he loves the passion of Turkish fans and feels at home here.
We both ordered steak and shared some appetizers. Icardi also recommended a delicious dessert that I had never tried before — it was amazing! We took selfies, and he even signed my jersey.
Spending time with him was like a dream come true. He wasn’t just a football star — he was a genuinely nice person. I’ll never forget that evening. It was one of the best moments of my life.
