If the other reports are true, our offer of €30m+player isn't inferior to City's offer. Only the proposed wages give advantage to the English (we apparently offer €2.5m while City offers €3.5m).
Sanchez's agent is meeting us tomorrow or Tuesday. Lets wait to see what will our last offer be. If we offer a similar amount and Udinese sell him to City, then it's their loss too. They produce guys like Sanchez once in a decade or more, but they sell guys like Pepe, Iaquinta and Motta regularly to us so I wonder if they'd like to lose a regular buyer like us.
We're a big Italian team and small teams like Udinese depend on us, just like teams like Sunderland depend on United, Pool, Chelsea where they sell their overrated players for much higher price than they can get abroad. Marotta should know this and play dirty with Pozzo.
It should be simple: You don't sell Sanchez to us and you want to earn some 4-5 millions more? Cool, take back Pepe and Motta, we don't want them. Lets see if anyone will pay you 12m eur for them.
