The Saudi market will close on September 7, which is the last day for operations to end the shutdown. Let’s remember that the player has a proposal of 13 million euros salary on the table, which made him ask Atlético to accept the offer from the Arab team to leave.
The player met on Friday with mattress club leaders to explain his wishes. Understandable Carrasco that, after saying ‘no’ to the possible exits to newcastle and FC Barcelona in the last two winter markets, to bet on Athletic and considering that he has only one year left on his contract, the proposal of Al-Shabaab cannot be denied.
Now it remains for the aforementioned offer to arrive at Athletic, there is talk of around 15 million euros, plus some bonuses for goals; which the mattress club assured had not yet arrived by the September 1 date.
