Icardi, who reportedly has a £98million release clause in his contract, has attracted attention from Europe's biggest clubs - including Chelsea and Real Madrid.
The Blues were handed a boost in their pursuit of the striker when Uefa threatened to punish Inter with a Financial Fair Play sanctions following the club's money problems.
The 25-year-old Argentine has been in sublime form this season, netting 13 times for his club, including a sensational strike against Tottenham in the Champions League.
And Chelsea fans were electrified when Icardi revealed on social media that he was travelling to the UK.
The striker, who has scored 13 goals for Inter this season, has been linked with a move to Stamford Bridge
He posted a picture on Monday morning as he was boarding a private jet and wrote: "On my way to London."
Chelsea fans got their hopes high and were quick to react on social media.
One, @ar19un92, wrote: "Hijack flight and bring him to Stamford bridge."
Another, @FanaticBlue, said: "There is a certain club there in London that needs a world class striker like you Mauro."
Icardi married his current agent Wanda Nara in May 2014
While @joseph_scamp added: "Come to Chelsea, Hazard needs someone who can stay onside."
However, Icardi's wife and agent seems to have dashed the fans' hopes.
Wanda, who has said her husband is as good as Cristiano Ronaldo, has recently hinted the striker is about to sign a new contract with Inter.
She wrote on Twitter: "It 00:30 at night and I am reading the pages of the contract renewal."
Wanda has hinted Icardi will extend his contract with Inter soon

The striker will reportedly commit his future to the Italian giants until 2021 and receive a hefty salary boost.
It would be a massive blow to Chelsea fans who are growing increasingly frustrated with their No.1 striker Alvaro Morata.
