Euros - the report said we would double his salary if we get promoted. I'm just struggling to think of the Albion paying a player £28,000 per week. Still, if that's the going rate.

Same here - I was trying to get some photos taken of a non-shutting door to send to our chippy. Trouble was, I spent most of the afternoon refreshing my laptop. Possibly explains why I didn't finish work until 6.30.

Non of this suggests he is eager to fulfil a lifetime ambition to play in the English Championship.

The power of money in the Premier League, and the money people are willing to gamble to get to the promised land. I don't imagine he'd ever heard of Brighton. In sane times, it is ridiculous to think a player from a club like Boca Juniors would be signed by a second tier English football club. Of course he'd rather play Serie A for Inter, or even Bologna.
Fact is, in the end, players will follow the money, as most of us would in our day job. I very much doubt it was Cabaye's dream to play for Crystal Palace, or Rondon's fantasy to sign for WBA, or that Bojan had all his life wanted to move from Barcelona to Stoke. If we are the only club putting in a serious offer, that his club accepts, if he's offered double his wage, it wouldn't surprise me if he came. So what that Brighton isn't his first choice ? If he comes my only hope is that he knuckles down, plays to the best of his ability, which will mean he fires the goals to get us promoted
Definitely not. Half it, and take a bit off

Albion Boleh!
Latest reports suggests he's turned us down

That makes no sense. Why would boca allow Calleri on a 6 months loan to Bologna? The deal of a 15% sell on for Boca plus 10m Euro must appeal to Boca.
Thats pretty much identical to the.earlier piece

The same bloke wrote this 2 days ago http://www.sempreinter.com/2016/01/08/calleri/ but this hasn't happened. Calleri would have to be in Italy now and Boca would have had to have turned us down 3 days ago. Clearly this is not the case.

And still this won't go away. If true we have offered what has been suggested, it would indicate to me that we have not been given the definite no thanks. Seems he doesn't want to come here and is holding out for Italy..... but why would we keep trying, and what fee do Boca want. If he stays at Boca for last 6 months of his contract, will they still get a fee because of his age?
I walked away from this thread, but now watching actively again. As mentioned earlier i'm now convinced that even if no we will still spend big in this window.300 pages hortly beckons.
