Mauro Icardi Visits Famous Giraffe Manor in Nairobi [Instagram]

Argentina and Paris Saint Germain striker Mauro Icardi is in the country.

The centre forward who finished with six goals in the just concluded 2021-2022 Ligue One season in France is currently on vacation in Nairobi with his partner Wanda Nara.

The couple visited the Giraffe Manor on the outskirts of the capital where they shared numerous photos on their social media accounts.

Icardi, who won the French Ligue 1 title with PSG last season, is enjoying his off-season in Nairobi after a busy season with Le Parisians.

 He was omitted from Argentina's squad that beat Italy 3-0 at Wembley Stadium on Wednesday in the Finalissima.

 Icardi shared several images of him spending some quality time with the giraffes which he identified as Rothschild Giraffes, a subspecies of the Northern Giraffe.

"Today we were able to enjoy another beautiful story among animals, a story in which this "mansion" called Giraffe Manor hides from the 70s and 80s, when the Rothschild Giraffe was in danger of extinction in Kenya, with only a few hundred specimens."

"In this "mansion" they did everything possible to live with them and make the giraffes feel in their habitat and thus be able to satisfy all their needs and help this species to multiply more and more," Icardi posted on Instagram.

A few days ago, the couple were in Rwanda.
