Atletico Madrid tell Chelsea £50M for Aguero

Chelsea must go to £50 million if they're to land Atletico Madrid striker Sergio Aguero.

The Mirror says Blues boss Carlo Ancelotti and the Chelsea hierarchy baulked at Madrid’s £50million valuation for the young Argentine last summer especially with his wage demands of £200,000 per week.

But while Chelsea hope to take advantage of Atletico’s financial meltdown and shocking start to the season by landing the striker for £40m, the Spanish side are determined to stick to their initial asking price.

Atletico are confident they can get that sum next summer, with a host of bidders more likely to be interested in signing a player who is ineligible for the rest of this season’s Champions League.

We shall never expire but looserpool expired in 1990.

I'm with the crowd that states that 50mil is too much. We
can get 3-4 very good players for that much. His wage demands
are ridiculous too. 30mil with 100k per wk wages? Maybe, but
50mil is crazy money and it should be used to by 3-4 good players
rather than just 1....
