AS:

Monaco could make 28m Euros bid for Isco.

Apparently Monaco and Malaga had meetings.

The Gazzetta dello Sport claims that Juventus have offered Paris Saint-Germain’s Zlatan Ibrahimovic a four-year contract.

The Swedish international, who spent two seasons with the Turin giants before his 2006 switch to Inter, continues to be paired with the Old Lady.

The Gazzetta today suggests that Juve have already been in contact with the striker regarding possible personal terms.

It is alleged that the Bianconeri are willing to hand him a four-year contract worth €7m a season, plus bonuses.

Ibra currently earns around €12m per season in the French capital.

Despite the rumours, Ibra’s agent and Juventus have both distanced themselves from each other over the past few days.

€28 million for Isco! Isn't that a bit on the higher side! But then again, it's Monaco and they need to over-pay to be in the league of navue rich.

by Zealous Wed Apr 24, 2013 3:19 pm

Can't see Ibra taking a pay cut although a four year contract seems tempting enough.

28 million is basically his release clause.

Marotta: "The deal for Zlatan cannot be completed because his wages are too high for a club in serie A given the current economical position of Italian football. Ibrahimovic wanted 8M per season and we cannot match this demand."

5 weeks later "We are happy to have signed Cigarini (2m per season) Diamanti (3.5M per season) Armero (2.5M per season) and Nainggolan (3M per season) hopefully these players can continue to develop well here in Turin"

These players will get a combined 1,000 minutes in the entire season and combined take up more than Ibra's wage.

This hasn't actually happened. But something similar probably will.

Zlatan makes €16.5 mil annually though...

by Tomwin Lannister Wed Apr 24, 2013 3:40 pm

W'ere offering 7-8M + bonus's on a 4 year deal.

Neither me nor you are in the mind of Zlatan. We don't know if he's willing to take a pay cut or not so it doesn't matter what he's currently earning.

Nobody said we'd have to match that and nobody knows if Ibra would take a pay cut or not. It's just a stab in the dark at this point.

by sportsczy Wed Apr 24, 2013 3:44 pm

It is a stab in the dark... but to go from 16.5 mil + 50% of image rights to 7-8 mil + bonuses is a HUGE paycutt. It's not like he's un-mercenary either lol.

by Tomwin Lannister Wed Apr 24, 2013 3:47 pm

That's true but he does have a fondness for Juventus and if he gets his bonus's say he's on 9-10M per season. He stands to inherit 40M off of a 4 year contract. If he sees out his PsG contract, because it's shorter he wouldn't earn much more than 40M.

It would be different if PsG had him locked down for 4 more years but even though in terms of money per season it's a big hit, at the contracts end he's not much better off with PsG.

I'm not saying he'll agree to our terms but I wouldn't dismiss it as a posibility. He does love Italy too.

by sportsczy Wed Apr 24, 2013 3:50 pm

You're assuming he can't get another contract in 2 years. Personally, i think he stays at PSG this season and then tries to either get a big extension next summer or get sold.

PSG are demanding €35 mil euros for his transfer too btw if he asks to leave.

Twitter ablaze with talk that Lewandowski is also heading to Bayern this summer ... can anyone confirm/deny?

(Poor Dortmund. But if they can get Eriksen & say Dzeko as replacements that won't be the most catastrophic thing.)

by windkick Wed Apr 24, 2013 5:09 pm

Jesus - if true then why didn't Pep go to Dortmund if he was planning on raiding them this like this

by sportsczy Wed Apr 24, 2013 5:12 pm

Lewadowski has been the worse kept secret since February... it's all over the place that he's going to Bayern for a while.

by Chumlum Wed Apr 24, 2013 5:15 pm

I knew it'd been talked about for a long time and that Bayern were a serious option, but I thought that Man Utd and maybe 1-2 clubs were still in the running ...

Not this summer as Dortmund won't sell him to Bayern but he can go for free next season if another big team steps up.

Most likely is that if another team agrees with Lewandowski and his agent, Dortmund will sell him cheaper just not to let him go to Bayern.

by BarcaLearning Wed Apr 24, 2013 7:10 pm

Lol...so Bayern stepping it up, Gotze AND Lewandowski in the one summer...mine as well go on and buy half the Dortmund team Razz

I would feel quite shite if I were a Dortmund fan right now Razz

by Gil Wed Apr 24, 2013 7:16 pm

What's the point of buying Lewandowski with 3 excellent strikers upfront? Hope Bayern get battered in the final if true.

It could be that he's a significantly different type of forward.

by barca 2011 Wed Apr 24, 2013 10:17 pm

Well how much would BVB rake in if they were to sell say, Goetze and Lewa?

Surely Lewa's stock will rise after next week?

Point is to weaken Dortmund lol

by BAYERN_MUNICH Wed Apr 24, 2013 10:23 pm

Point is that strikers are leaving maybe?

by Onyx Wed Apr 24, 2013 10:23 pm

They'd get around 60-70m Euros imo.

37m I think it was for Gotze and for Lewandowski they'd get around 25-30m. A lot of money to rebuild the team with.

Probably close to 70m.

It is a lot of money, especially when Dortmund are known for making very smart, economically sound purchases which benefit them to the max.
