He has a contract offer on the table apparently from Juventus in the region of £5.3m-a-year, which could raise to £7m related to performance-based bonuses. That’s hardly like the £175k a week he wanted from Barça.
I think we can afford that. Remains to be seen how much of a risk we see him bringing to squad harmony etc.
It’s off the table as he thinks we’re not prestigious enough for him though. It doesn’t seem to be money holding up any deal.
