Agent: Dzeko will cost €40M

Wolfsburg striker Edin Dzeko will cost any potential suitors €40 million, according to his agent.

The impressive striker has been linked with a host of top European clubs, including Manchester United.

His agent Silvano Martina has revealed the huge fee, caused by a clause in his contract with his current club.

“He [Dzeko] costs so much, he has a clause of €40 million,” Martina told ESPN.

He’s skeptical whether a transfer will actually take place, but still follows the speculation.

“I follow it [the rumours] myself, but only in our country. I can say that for him it is premature to speak of the certainty of a transfer.”

United are unlikely to be his next club, as their spending will be severely limited due to the financial trouble the club is in.
