People get bent out of shape over Benzema's wages, when in fact Dzeko will command as much, perhaps more, money as Benzema.

I doubt that. Benzema is on really high wages afaik. Around the $8 mill mark? Our highest earner is at $5 million right? I doubt we'll offer Dzeko any more money than that...

No one actually knows how much would we be able to pay in wages for either Dzeko or Benzema here V, but considering Karim's wages at Real, I'm concerned if he will accept to earn half he's making now. If he in fact does accept that, then I'll be in dilemma who to choose considering they are both excellent strikers.

Forget those 8m. It's an unrealistic figure and only works for a club like Real Madrid. Only Man City could offer the same or more but I doubt he would go there. Dzeko earns around 3.5m in Wolfsburg and is probably the hottest striker on the market, his demands will be anywhere between 4-6m. Benzema would join Juventus for anything between 4-6m, no doubt.

Dzeko can choose where he wants to go, don't think he'll be modest with wages folks. I wouldn't be surprised if earns more than Buffon.

It depends how much Dzeko wants to join us though, if he wants to join us like Krasic did then he wont demand huge wages thats for sure.
Dzeko wants a big club, that's for certain...but he won't be short of suitors. His wages will be high, there's no doubt about it. My estimate is he'll be making at least 5m next year, wherever he ends up.

Not many clubs can afford him though V. Select few clubs only have 30 Million these days mate. City were our only rivals for him I think due to him wanting to leave Germany that rules Bayern out.
