Villarreal offer ‘short of expectations' for Chelsea defender Renato Veiga — report
Villarreal were linked with unwanted Chelsea defender Axel Disasi earlier this summer, and though nothing came of that, they are still in need of reinforcements at the position and have thus switched their target to unwanted Chelsea defender Renato Veiga instead — and according to Fabrizio Romano, have even made an official play for their 'dream target'. Unfortunately, back in the real world, it sounds like the financial realities of the situation remain the same as before. The La Liga side were not willing or able to spend €30m on Disasi — their record incoming transfer is barely over €20m — and Chelsea are said to be wanting even more for Veiga (€40?!). Whatever their bid is now, it's fallen short of our 'expectations'. This is the trouble in trying to do business outside of England (or Saudi Arabia) or with teams that are not among the European elite. The Premier League (top to bottom) are so far above of most other leagues financially that it becomes an exercise in futility. The levels of money are simply different, even if they are willing to spend. Villarreal finished fifth last season, but were still able to nab a Champions League spot (Spain, like England, get an extra spot thanks to their UEFA coefficient). So perhaps that little boost in income can be turned into a bit of extra cash for Veiga?
