Palermo yet to receive offer for Man City, Chelsea target Pastore

Italian club Palermo insist they have received no offer for Argentinean midfielder Javier Pastore.

The 21-year old has emerged as a target for the likes of Manchester City, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Juventus but Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini said that he is unlikely to be parting Sicily this summer.

He also said that it would take a very hefty offer for the Rosanero to sell their prized asset.

"We have not been contacted by Juventus and I really don't think he enters into the Bianconeri's budget," Zamparini told GR Parlamento.

"I have been approached by other clubs, such as Real Madrid, Chelsea, Barcelona and Manchester City but the player has said he doesn't want to move and will remain at Palermo, unless he changes his mind."

And for the price: "Upwards of 50 million euros."
