KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum £50million Carlos Tevez

Reports today claim that Liverpool have put a mind blowing £50million package together to try and land Carlos Tevez.

The claims come from Tottenham who were ready to table a cheeky £18million bid only to be told by Kia Joorabchian that Liverpool have agreed to pay a £26million transfer fee and pay Tevez £160,000-a-week over 3-years.

A Spurs source is quoted as saying: "It seems amazing that Liverpool have the money to do this when you consider their owners are looking for funds.

"Spurs were told that Liverpool were going to get the deal done and that Tevez was very happy about it."

a bit much! lol. sparks will fly on here. in rafa we trust. wages are staggering though.

Yeh I wouldn't mind some of that lol!

That is obscene All I can say is that if this is the case I hope Rafa know's what he is doing, it's a lot of money to waste on a player that Fergie doesn't want.

I wont quote the rag that this story comes from but it says it all.

I really cannot believe Rafa would pay £50m for Tevez, I really can't!

If he has that money to spend on one player he'd be after Messi or Kaká surely?

Tevez scores important goals.

We need more players who can change matches in addition to Gerrard and Torres, and to a certain extent, Benayoun.

Agreed but Tevez is not worth £50m - is anybody for that matter??? but that's a subject for another post

26m still impossible

Crazy money, but I can't belive Rafa would spend all this money on one player,even then, only on a three year deal, doesn't make since. We'd have to renew his deal next year, plus where he going to get this money from who'll be sacrficed??

Hasn't this come from this mornings sun?

there's no way that Liverpool would be prepared to pay him £40,000 a week more than Torres and Gerrard.

I've no doubt Rafa will be interested in Tevez, but this sounds more like Kia Joorabchian trying to get as much money as possible to me.
