Chiesa went from 40m to 30m to 20m to 15m and now its 10-15m. Deal is going to close the last day of mercato for 1-2m plus difficult bonuses
He is never gonna command 30m let alone 40m with he in his last year contract. 20m is the max, most likely nearing his book value of 15m
The only possible way to get above 20m is from Saudi Clubs but that is closer to 20m than to 30m. And we know he reject the Saudi option
The fact he accepts a pay cut to Barca means the relationship with us unrepairable. So as long as we get 15m that means we are getting that money instead of losing 24m this year (amortization and salary) with him on the stand. Then join Inter for free next summer (double blow)
If you think that extending him is a better solution, we already presented our offer with a bridge year contract and the offer was better than the current Barca wages, but he rejects it
