Chivu opens Inter door
Friday 6 July, 2007 ::: channel4.com
Roma defender Cristian Chivu’s future is still in the balance after his agent revealed he is considering Inter.
Despite approaches from the Beneamata and Barcelona, the Romanian stopper appeared to have chosen to move to the Bernabeu when the Giallorossi agreed a £13m deal with the Spanish champions.
However, contract negotiations with Real fell through and the ex-Ajax star is considering his options once more with Inter back in the frame.
“We spoke to Roma director of sport Daniele Prade’ and now the Giallorossi know that Cristian doesn’t intend to join Barcelona or Real Madrid,†agent Giovanni Becali stated.
Chivu is now believed to be weighing up whether he should join the Nerazzurri or stay put until his contract expires in June 2008. Then he can leave on a Bosman, allowing him to demand a higher signing on fee.
The 26-year-old’s wage request has taken Real by surprise and President Ramon Calderon is pondering his next move.
“We’re having to give the Chivu transfer serious thought because the demands are much higher than we had expected,†he admitted.
Meanwhile, Spanish newspaper Marca could be facing legal action after printing reports that Inter chief Massimo Moratti has already paid £1m to agents in the deal.
What a pig Moratti is. Nobody pays directly some millions to the agent, just the fee he gets from the transfer BUT NO, Moratti PAID him some millions to convince Chivu Inter is a better option than Barcelona or Madrid.
