Ridiculous price for Bremer.
If we made a real offer to Cairo before June, we would have got this done in few weeks. Bremer would have pushed it, in a case where we actually would negotiate a deal by giving a real offer to Cairo and it would have been done with 30m+ valuation in the end.
I’m not so convinced, Maratto and co. have been in ongoing negotiations with Cairo for months, for long Cairo asked for a player on top of the 30m, a player Inter where never prepared to let go. Cairo where never going to accept anything under their 50m valuation of Bremer, being 40m plus bonus, 30m plus talents with high sale potential in the 20m class. If he would have been ready to do so, I’m convinced Marotta would have landed Bremer a long time ago.
Marotta tried using the player wish to join Inter to force the price down, it was really the only way Inter could ever get him, Zhang never would have allowed Marotta to spend more then 30m if there was a high sale of one of the teams profiles, really Cairo would have no rush to accept such an offer before the last days of the market.
It’s really optimistic to think we could land him for 30m when everything point in the direction that Cairo would never accept that unless they where running out of time.
