OFFICIAL: Chelsea Miss Out On Top Transfer Target
Chelsea have missed out on another transfer target after Javier Pastore is set to join Ligue 1 side Paris Saint Germain.
Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has announced Argentine superstar will be joining PSG after the player rejected a move to Chelsea. Palermo had accepted offers from both Chelsea and PSG but it appears the 22-year old playermaker has opted for a move to Paris.
“I would’ve liked to keep Pastore at Palermo, but with those figures, it was impossible,” President Zamparini told Sky Sport Italia.
“Am I satisfied? In economic terms yes, but in football and personal terms no. You can’t have everything.
“I already promised to come see him play in Paris, as watching Pastore in action is always a pleasure.
“The sum we earned from this transfer will allow us to strengthen the squad even more, balance the books which are already looking healthy and create an ever stronger Palermo.”
