Mauro Icardi has reportedly been banned from driving in Argentina until 2099 following a traffic-related incident involving his partner, China Suárez.

According to reports, authorities took action after a video emerged showing Suárez leaning out of the window of Icardi’s moving car without wearing a seatbelt. The incident reportedly led authorities to investigate the circumstances surrounding the vehicle.

During the process, officials reportedly discovered that Icardi did not have a valid Argentine driving licence, adding another issue to the case.

Icardi has now reportedly been handed a driving ban that would prevent him from legally driving in Argentina until 2099. If the reported date stands, the former Inter and Paris Saint-Germain striker would be 105 years old when the sanction expires.

The extraordinary length of the reported ban has attracted significant attention, particularly because of the unusual circumstances surrounding the case.

However, details of the sanction and the precise legal basis for the 2099 expiry date remain dependent on reports from Argentine authorities and local media.
