That wage is big problem, two third of Italian club cant afford that. He's a bull btw for such small physique

He didn't want that wage though... he's only taking it because of Moscow. He was asking for 5 mil euros gross (he makes 4,6 mil gross at OM right now).

Would've been a good signing on top of another striker in my opinion if they can afford it.

We don't need a 10 after buying two this summer already Laughing

Besides I'm pretty damn sure he wouldn't want to join us.

Found out how? A good player is a good player even after you realize he's a good player.

You can still get found out or get your impact on games limited despite being a good player... lol

Underrated player.

My same opinion.

I agree.. Surprising no one bothered with him.

I would rate Cazorla over him, but if Atletico are really interested in Cazorla for €20m.. you would think €7m is a pretty good value.

In fact if Cazorla really wants to leave (which I don't necessarily believe), I wouldn't be too bothered by taking Valbuena as a back-up and pocketing the 13m.

Thought Newcastle would be all over this like a cheap suit.
