It has been revealed that Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has set Javier Pastore’s asking price.
Zamparini revealed this week he has already rejected a recent offer from Premier League giants Chelsea for the Argentina international.
Zamparini said : “Pastore could leave, but the starting price for negotiations is €50m,”.
“He is one of the few world class players who are left in Italy.”
Chelsea’s offer is understood to have been for €33 million.
Palermo midfielder Javier Pastore has admitted that love to move to either Barcelona or Real Madrid.
Speaking on his official website, the 21 year old Argentine international offered a detailed view on his future.
“There is still no formal offer of any of the clubs [Real Madrid and Barcelona], but it would be a huge honour, a dream, to play in either. They are the best teams in the world! But now I think only of Palermo. I am very well here,” Pastore said on pastorejavier.com.
“They do not fight for having me. The press says, but for me there was no formal offer yet, so I cannot say. Also it is a great honour for me, or representatives of those clubs at some point have made positive comments about my game. It is the greatest of compliments.
“I’m fine in Palermo, very happy. Surely my turn to go will come at some point, but it’s not something I think about. For now this is my place, Palermo is a great club.”
