4. Mauro Icardi

While some of the players on this list's discretions could be interpreted as being the victim of circumstance, Mauro Icardi's negative reception among his teammates was wholly deserved.

At Sampdoria, Icardi met his future wife Wanda Nara, so far no harm no foul... The only problem in this budding love story was Nara was already married to Icardi's teammate, Maxi Lopez. Unfortunately, Icardi chose not to uphold bro-code with his countryman, and later posted photos of himself caring for Lopez's son on social media.

Despite leaving for pastures new at Inter Milan, Icardi would again find himself in hot water after engaging in a dispute with the team's ultras at pitchside. Icardi would later recount the incident in his autobiography, referring to the fans in a derogatory manner, before being forced to remove the chapter by the club's brass.

Unsurprisingly, the Argentinian forward remained unpopular among the Inter faithful despite his success on the pitch, and would again find himself on the move, signing permanently with PSG earlier this year.
