According to swiss media he's on 1.6 Million EUR a year...

 

That's about £26k per week at current exchange rates.

Sounds like his agent is getting mixed up with 40k Euro's and £40k.

 

It's more like 30k per week though.  Sounds like his agent is full of s***.

 

Not too sure of German taxes but £40k is about £20k NET(give or take) in UK so depending on what they take off its possible he could technically be on more there. That said i thought Germans highest tax payers werent far off ours at 45% ish iirc

It appears that this guy isn't his actual agent but just his English representative.

 

Also a quick google search also shows that this guy likes to argue that he's players agents when in fact he's not. Blackburn have twice had a run in with him.

Suspicious about this 'agent' - I'm not worried about this story at all. Pretty confident we'll get him, which might look foolish considering how this summer has gone.

 

Seem to remember a number of people saying the same about Erdinc. ;)

If i was offered 40k a week from work, i would say that was 'rediculous' as well... :dowie:

 

Too right, don't sell yourself short, hold out for 60.

Haha...on a more serious note, whether he is his real agent or not, what an arrogant loudmouth prick for referring to that sort of money as 'rediculous'...

Guilty :D Ferguson was hinting yesterday that PSG want Berbatov......one more striker and surely he has to leave them. 4th choice, man.
