Real Sociedad find Jo deal too complicated

Real Sociedad directors admit they are no closer to agreeing a deal for Manchester City striker Jo and are starting to lose patience.

City are believed to have paid out some £18million to lure Jo away from CSKA Moscow in 2008 and will be looking to make some return on that investment.

"The subject of Jo has not been discarded but has become more complicated," said a club director.
