Second thoughts about Garay

Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claims that the transfer of Racing Santander central defender Ezequiel Garay (21) is under discussion in Barcelona: the Argentinian player is still considered as an interesting option, but not to every price.

The transfer sum of 15 million euro for a central defender, a position that is already well occupied, makes Barcelona hesitate. And the transfer seems to get more expensive as time goes by: the interest from several other European top clubs makes the player, his agents ànd Santander ask more money. Santander would now have received an offer from Manchester United consisting of 16 million euro cash plus central defender Gerard Piqué (21).
