Genoa’s proposed swoop for Liverpool’s Emiliano Insua may have collapsed, according to reports in Italy.
The Marassi outfit took an interest in the left-back when the player’s transfer to Fiorentina was called off.
Despite agreeing terms with the Premiership club, the Viola could not find a compromise with the player’s agent over his wage demands.
Now whispers coming out of Genoa today claim that the Rossoblu are having the same difficulties.
It’s alleged that the Argentine has requested a three-year deal worth €2m a season, figures which President Enrico Preziosi is unlikely to match.
It’s believed that Fiorentina sporting director Pantaleo Corvino offered Insua around €800,000 a campaign.
Based on this latest article, Insua wants 42k euros/wk but Fiorentina offered 17k euros/wk.
