Vazquez rejects Inter via Jiangsu
By Football Italia staff
Franco Vazquez reportedly turned down an offer from Jiangsu Suning, who would then hand him to Inter in 2017.
Palermo set a €25m price-tag on the player and the Chinese club, owned by the same patrons who took over Inter this month, were prepared to pay it.
Vazquez would also have received wages worth €10m per year.
The plan, according to SportItalia, was to stay in China for one season and then be loaned to Inter for free from the summer of 2017.
This is a way of getting around the Financial Fair Play parameters, as in real terms the investment is made by Jiangsu Suning and not the Nerazzurri.
However, the same report suggests Vazquez turned down the proposal, as he would prefer to remain in Serie A.
